Answer:
P = pressure T = temperature
Answer:
[H2] = [I2] = 0.64M; [HI] = 4.72M
Explanation:
Based on the reaction:
H2 + I2 ⇄ 2HI
The K is defined as:
k = 54.3 = [HI]² / [H2] [I2]
<em>Where [] is molar concentration of each reactant at equilibrium</em>
As the initial concentration of HI is 6mol/dm^3 = 6M the equilibrium concentration of each reactant is:
[H2] = X
[I2] = X
[HI] = 6 - 2X
<em>Where X is reaction coordinate</em>
<em />
Replacing:
54.3 = [6-2X]² / [X] [X]
54.3X² = 4X² - 24X + 36
0 = -50.3X² - 24X + 36
Solving for X:
X = -1.12. False solution, produce negative concentrations
X = 0.64M. Right solution
Replacing:
[H2] = 0.64M
[I2] = 0.64M
[HI] = 6 - 2*0.64M = 4.72M
Equilibrium concentrations are:
<h3>[H2] = [I2] = 0.64M; [HI] = 4.72M</h3>
