Answer:
The answers to your questions are given below
Explanation:
The following data were obtained from the question:
CH3COOH → CH3C00^- + H^+
Equilibrium constant, Ka = 1.8 x 10^-5
AgCl → Ag^+ + Cl^-
Equilibrium constant, Ksp = 1.6 x 10^-10
Al(OH)3 → Al^3+ + 3OH^-
Equilibrium constant, Ksp = 3.7 x 10^-15
A+B → C
Equilibrium constant, K = 4.9 x 10^3
When the value of the equilibrium constant is grater than 1, it shows that the concentration of product is higher than that of the reactant and it implies that the forward reaction is favored.
When the value of the equilibrium constant is 1, it shows that the the concentration of the product and reactant are the same. Therefore neither the forward nor the reverse reaction is favored.
When the value of the equilibrium constant is lesser than 1, it shows that the concentration of the reactant is higher than the concentration of the product. Therefore, the reversed reaction is favored.
Now, we shall the question given above as follow:
A. CH3COOH → CH3C00^- + H^+
Equilibrium constant, Ka = 1.8 x 10^-5
Since the value of the equilibrium constant is lesser than 1, it means that the reverse reaction is favored.
B. AgCl → Ag^+ + Cl^-
Equilibrium constant, Ksp = 1.6 x 10^-10
Since the value of the equilibrium constant is lesser than 1, it means that the reverse reaction is favored.
C. Al(OH)3 → Al^3+ + 3OH^-
Equilibrium constant, Ksp = 3.7 x 10^-15
Since the value of the equilibrium constant is lesser than 1, it means that the reverse reaction is favored.
D. A+B → C
Equilibrium constant, K = 4.9 x 10^3
Since the value of the equilibrium constant is greater than 1, it means that the forward reaction is favored.
