Q or the Reaction Quotient is the interaction between the reactants and products in a given chemical reaction. The value of Q should be compared to the value of K (which is the value of the reaction at equilibrium) in order to determine which way the reaction should move to achieve equilibrium.If Q is already equal to K, then this indicates that the reaction is in equilibrium. If Q>K, then the reactants are converted to products; If Q<K, then the products are converted to reactants. Either way, the reaction proceeds to move towards equilibrium after some time.

what modifications to either or both of the half-cell reactions would kim need to make if she wanted to use them to produce equa

kompoz [17]

We have to add the both half cell equations and eliminate the number of electrons lost/gained.

<h3>What modification must Kim make to the equations?</h3>

The term redox reaction is a type of reaction that occurs when an electron is lost or gained in a reaction system. We can see that in this reaction, zinc looses two electron which are gained by copper.

If we want to obtain the equation 4.9 which is the overall equation of the redox reaction from the various half cell equations then we have to add the both half cell equations and eliminate the number of electrons lost/gained.
