(a)
Interpretation:
The ICE table for the following reaction has to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
The condition of equilibrium is a state of balance of processes that runs in opposite directions. At equilibrium, the formation of a product from reactant balanced the formation of reactant from product. Also, the change in concentration of reaction and product seems to be negligible at equilibrium state.
The general equilibrium reaction is as follows:
Here,
The expression of the equilibrium constant for the above reaction is as follows:
Here,
(b)
Interpretation:
The ICE table for the following reaction has to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Refer to part (1).

Chemistry: Principles and Practice
- Describe a nonchemical system that is in equilibrium, and explain how the principles of equilibrium apply to the system.arrow_forwardIn the figure, orange fish are placed in one aquarium and green fish in an adjoining aquarium. The two tanks are separated by a removable partition that is initially closed. (a) Describe what happens in the first few minutes after the partition is opened. (b) What would you expect to see several hours later? (c) How is this system analogous to dynamic chemical equilibrium?arrow_forwardFor the following reactions, predict whether the pressure of the reactants or products increases or remains the same when the volume of the reaction vessel is increased. (a) H2O(l)H2O(g) (b) N2(g)+3H2(g)2NH3(g) (c) C2H4(g)+H2O(g)C2H5OH(g)arrow_forward
- Explain that equilibrium is dynamic, and that at equilibrium the forward and backward reaction rates are equal.arrow_forwardIn Section 13.1 of your text, it is mentioned that equilibrium is reached in a closed system. What is meant by the term closed system. and why is it necessary to have a closed system in order for a system to reach equilibrium? Explain why equilibrium is not reached in an open system.arrow_forwardWrite equilibrium constant expressions for the following generalized reactions. a. 3X(g)+2Y(g)Z(g) b. 3X(g)+2Y(s)Z(g) c. 3X(s)+2Y(s)Z(g) d. 3X(g)+2Y(g)Z(s)arrow_forward
