Aqueous solutions of hypochlorite ion ( Cio " ) and hydrogen eyanide (HCN) react to produce hypochloric acid (HCIO) and cyanide ion ( CN )
according to the following equilibrium reaction.
Cio (aq) + HCN(aq) = HCIO (aq) + CN (aq)
Given the following equilibrium constants, which statement best describes the reaction once equilibrium is established?
Ką = 3.0 x 10-8
Ką = 4.0 × 10-10
O a. The reaction is reactant favored because the acid and the base on the product side are stronger than the acid and the base on the reactant side.
HCIO
НCN
b. The reaction is product favored because the acid and the base on the reactant side are stronger than the acid and the base on the product side.
O. The reaction is product favored because the acid and the base on the product side are stronger than the acid and the base on the reactant side.
d. The reaction is neither product nor reactant favored.
O e. The reaction is reactant favored because the acid and the base on the reactant side are stronger than the acid and the base on the product side.
