Question

1. Calculate and interpret the equilibrium constant. Using the reaction below.

The equilibrium concentrations 0.60 M for E, 0.80 M for F, and 1.30 M for G. (Note: E, F, and G are all gases.) Do not include your solution.

Answer 1

kc = [G]² / [E] [F], kc = [1.30M]² / [0.60M] [0.80M]

Step-by-step explanation:

The reaction is:

E + F ⇄ 2G

The equilibrium constant, kc, must be written as the ratio of the molar concentrations of products over reactants. Each concentration powered to its coefficient.

For the reaction of the problem, kc is:

kc = [G]² / [E] [F]

Replacing the given concentrations:

kc = [1.30M]² / [0.60M] [0.80M]
