2. Consider the reaction: Hg²+ (aq) + 4Cl(aq) = [HgCl4²](aq) The initial concentration of Hg2+ is 0.40 mol/L, the initial concentration of CI is 0.40 mol/L and Kc = 1.1 x 1016. Calculate the equilibrium concentrations of all species in the reaction. State any simplifying assumptions (or approximations) you make. Hint: Assume a volume of 1 L.

2. Consider the reaction:
Hg²+ (aq) + 4CH(aq) ⇒ [HgCl4²](aq)
The initial concentration of Hg²+ is 0.40 mol/L, the initial concentration of Cl is 0.40
mol/L and Kc = 1.1 x 1016. Calculate the equilibrium concentrations of all species in
the reaction. State any simplifying assumptions (or approximations) you make. Hint:
Assume a volume of 1 L.
