Fe 3+ + SCN- --> FeSCN 2+
<span>.......Fe 3+ .......SCN-.........FeSCN 2+ </span>
<span>I.......0.04..........0.001.............. </span>
<span>C........-x...............-x............. </span>
<span>E.....0.04-x.....0.001-x...........x </span>
<span>Keq = 203.4 = x / (0.04-x)(0.001-x) </span>
<span>203.4 = x / (x^2 - 0.041x + 4x10^-5) </span>
<span>203.4x^2 - 8.34x + 0.00094 = x </span>
<span>203.4x^2 - 9.34x + 0.00094 = 0 </span>
<span>x = -0.0001M or 0.0458M </span>
<span>so, using your Keq, there would be no SCN- or Fe 3+ left.....all would be in the form of FeSCN 2+</span>
When a substance is heated, it gains thermal energy. Therefore, its particles move faster and its temperature rises. When a substance is cooled, it loses thermal energy, which causes its particles to move more slowly and its temperature to drop.
Well we need to see the fossil
