- . Consider the reaction 2CO(g)+O2(g)2CO2(g)Suppose the system is already at equilibrium, and then an additional mole of CO2(g) is injected into the system at constant temperature. Does the amount of O2(g) in the system increase or decrease? Does the value of K for the reaction change?arrow_forward. Consider an equilibrium mixture consisting of H2O(g), CO(g). H2(g), and CO2(g) reacting in a closed vessel according to the equation H2O(g)+CO(g)H2(g)+CO2(g)a. You add more H2O to the flask. How does the new equilibrium concentration of each chemical compare to its origin al equilibrium concentration after equilibrium is re-established? Justify your answer. b. You add more H2to the flask. How does the concentration of each chemical compare to its original concentration after equilibrium is re-established? Justify your answer.arrow_forwardConsider an equilibrium mixture of four chemicals (A. B. C. and D. all gases) reacting in a closed flask according to the following equation: A+BC+Da. You add more A to the flask. How does the concentration of each chemical compare to its original concentration after equilibrium is re-established? Justify your answer. h. You have the original set-up at equilibrium, and add more D to the flask. How does the concentration of each chemical compare to its original concentration after equilibrium is re-established?

- . For the reaction 3O2(g)2O3(g)The equilibrium constant, K, has the value 1.121054at a particular temperature. a. What does the very small equilibrium constant indicate about the extent to which oxygen gas, O2(g), is converted to ozone gas, O3(g), at this temperature? b. If the equilibrium mixture is analyzed and [O2(g)]is found to be 3.04102M, what is the concentration of O3(g) in the mixture’?arrow_forwardPhosphorus pentachloride decomposes at elevated temperatures. PCl5(g) PCl3(g) + Cl2(g) An equilibrium mixture at some temperature consists of 3.120 g of PCl5, 3.845 g of PCl3, and 1.787 g of Cl2 in a 10.0-L flask. If you add 1.418 g of Cl2, how will the equilibrium be affected? What will the concentrations of PCl5, PCl3, and Cl2 be when equilibrium is reestablished?arrow_forwardA mixture of SO2, O2, and SO3 at 1000 K contains the gases at the following concentrations: [SO2] = 5.0 103 mol/L, [O2] = 1.9 103 mol/L, and [SO3] = 6.9 103 mol/L. Is the reaction at equilibrium? If not, which way will the reaction proceed to reach equilibrium? 2 SO2(g) + O2(g) 2 SO3(g) Kc = 279arrow_forward

(a) addition of A(NO3)3 (b) increase in temperature (c) adding Na+, forming NaBarrow_forward. Consider the following exothermic reaction at equilibrium: N2(g)+3H2(g)2NH3(g)Predict how the following changes affect the number of moles of each component of the system after equilibrium is re-established by completing the table. Complete the table with the terms increase, decrease, or no change. N2 H2 NH3 Add N2(g) Remove H2(g) Add NH3(g) Add Ne(g) (constant V) Increase the temperature Decrease the volume (constant T) Add a catalystarrow_forwardConsider the following statements: Consider the reaction A(g)+B(g)C(g),for which at equilibrium [A] = 2 M, [B] = 1 M, and [C] = 4 M. To a 1-L container of the system at equilibrium, you add 3 moles of B. A possible equilibrium condition is [A] = 1 M, [B] = 3 M, and [C] = 6 M because in both cases K = 2. Indicate everything that is correct in these statements and everything that is incorrect. Correct the incorrect statements, and explain.arrow_forward
- Consider the equilibrium FeO(s)+CO(g)Fe(s)+CO2(g) When carbon dioxide is removed from the equilibrium mixture (say, by passing the gases through water to absorb CO2), what is the direction of net reaction as the new equilibrium is achieved?arrow_forwardA chemist put 1.18 mol of substance A and 2.85 mol of substance B into a 10.0-L flask, which she then closed. A and B react by the following equation: A(g)+2B(g)3C(g)+D(g) She found that the equilibrium mixture at 25C contained 0.376 mol of D.

Methane can react with oxygen to form gaseous carbon dioxide and water vapor, or methane can react with oxygen to form gaseous carbon monoxide and water vapor. At equilibrium. the pressure of oxygen is 0.326 atm, and the pressure of water vapor is 4.45 atm. Calculate the pressures of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide present at equilibrium.arrow_forward
