When we have this balanced equation for a reaction:
Fe(OH)2(s) ↔ Fe+2 + 2OH-
when Fe(OH)2 give 1 mole of Fe+2 & 2 mol of OH-
so we can assume [Fe+2] = X and [OH-] = 2 X
when Ksp = [Fe+2][OH-]^2
and have Ksp = 4.87x10^-17
[Fe+2]= X
[OH-] = 2X
so by substitution
4.87x10^-17 = X*(2X)^2
∴X^3 = 4.8x10^-17 / 4
∴the molar solubility X = 2.3x10^-6 M
Was .08 off its 4.08 like that guy explained
amount of product formed or amount of reactants used / time
First, we convert the moles of each substance into the concentration using the volume of the reactor.
[SO₃] = 0.425/1.5 = 0.283 M
[SO₂] = 0.208 / 1.5 = 0.139 M
[O₂] = 0.208/1.5 = 0.139 M
The equilibrium constant is calculated by:
Kc = [SO₃]² / [O₂][SO₂]²
Kc = (0.283)²/(0.139)(0.139)²
Kc = 29.8 = 2.98 x 10¹
The answer is C
