1. For each of the following equilibria, write the equilibrium constant expression for Kc. Where
appropriate, write the equilibrium constant expression for Kp.
a. WO3(s) + 3 H2(g) W(s) + 3 H2O(g)
2. The air pollutant NO is produced in automobile engines from the high-temperature reaction:
N2 (g) + O2(g) 2 NO(g) KC = 1.7 × 10-3 at 2300 K
If the initial concentrations of N2 and O2 at 2300 K are both 2.24 M N2 and 0.56 M O2, what are the
concentrations of NO, N2, O2 when the reaction mixture reaches equilibrium?
is Kc = 9.110-6 at 298 K.
a. What is Go at this temperature?
b. If standard-state concentrations of the reactants and products are mixed, in which direction does
the reaction proceed?
c. Calculate G when [Fe3+] = 0.20 M, [Hg22+] = 0.010 M, [Fe2+] = 0.010 M, and [Hg2+] = 0.025 M.
In which direction will the reaction proceed to achieve equilibrium?
