Red was originally selected for the same reason. Over a century ago, red was a nice bright color that set fire apparatus apart from most vehicles on the road. Red became traditional, and most fire departments stayed with it. Some firefighters like yellow trucks, some prefer traditional red.

Given the equilibrium constants for the following two reactions in aqueous solution at 25 ∘C HNO2(aq)H2SO3(aq)⇌⇌H+(aq) + NO2−(aq

krok68 [10]

Answer : The value of $K_c$ for the final reaction is, 184.09

Explanation :

The equilibrium reactions in aqueous solution are :

(1) $HNO_2(aq)\rightleftharpoons H^+(aq)+NO_2^-(aq)$ $K_{c_1}=4.5\times 10^{-4}$

(2) $H_2SO_3(aq)\rightleftharpoons 2H^+(aq)+SO_3^{2-}(aq)$ $K_{c_2}=1.1\times 10^{-9}$

The final equilibrium reaction is :

$2HNO_2(aq)+SO_3^{2-}(aq)\rightleftharpoons H_2SO_3(aq)+2NO_2^-(aq)$ $K_{c}=?$

Now we have to calculate the value of $K_c$ for the final reaction.

Now equation 1 is multiply by 2 and reverse the equation 2, we get the value of final equilibrium reaction and the expression of final equilibrium constant is:

$K_c=\frac{(K_{c_1})^2}{K_{c_2}}$
