Answer : The equilibrium constant K_c for the reaction is, 0.1133

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the concentration of Br_2.

\text{Concentration of }Br_2=\frac{\text{Moles of }Br_2}{\text{Volume of solution}}

\text{Concentration of }Br_2=\frac{1.35moles}{0.780L}=1.731M

Now we have to calculate the dissociated concentration of Br_2.

The balanced equilibrium reaction is,

                              Br_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2Br(aq)

Initial conc.         1.731 M      0

At eqm. conc.      (1.731-x)    (2x) M

As we are given,

The percent of dissociation of Br_2 = \alpha = 1.2 %

So, the dissociate concentration of Br_2 = C\alpha=1.731M\times \frac{1.2}{100}=0.2077M

The value of x = 0.2077 M

Now we have to calculate the concentration of Br_2\text{ and }Br at equilibrium.

Concentration of Br_2 = 1.731 - x  = 1.731 - 0.2077 = 1.5233 M

Concentration of Br = 2x = 2 × 0.2077 = 0.4154 M

Now we have to calculate the equilibrium constant for the reaction.

The expression of equilibrium constant for the reaction will be :

K_c=\frac{[Br]^2}{[Br_2]}

Now put all the values in this expression, we get :

K_c=\frac{(0.4154)^2}{1.5233}=0.1133

Therefore, the equilibrium constant K_c for the reaction is, 0.1133

When an atom in a reactant loses electrons, what happens to its oxidation number?
Anton [14]
Its oxidation number increases. When an atom loses electrons, there are now more protons then electrons so its oxidation number increases.
Hope this helps
