Answer: What type of chemical reaction is rusting of iron?

Rust is formed when iron reacts with oxygen in moist air. The following chemical equation represents the reaction: 4Fe + 3O2 → 2Fe2O3. Water is necessary for the oxidation reaction to occur and to facilitate transport of the electrons.

Given the two reactions H2S(aq)⇌HS−(aq)+H+(aq), K1 = 9.57×10−8, and HS−(aq)⇌S2−(aq)+H+(aq), K2 = 1.46×10−19, what is the equilib

Dvinal [7]

Answer: The value of $K_c$ for the final reaction is $7.16\times 10^{25}$

Explanation:

The given chemical equations follows:

Equation 1: $H_2S(aq.)\rightleftharpoons HS^-(aq.)+H^(aq.);K_1$

Equation 2: $HS^-(aq.)\rightleftharpoons S^{2-}(aq.)+H^(aq.);K_2$

The net equation follows:

$S^{2-}(aq.)+2H^+(aq.)\rightleftharpoons H_2S(aq.);K_c$

As, the net reaction is the result of the addition of reverse of first equation and the reverse of second equation. So, the equilibrium constant for the net reaction will be the multiplication of inverse of first equilibrium constant and the inverse of second equilibrium constant.

The value of equilibrium constant for net reaction is:

$K_c=\frac{1}{K_1}\times \frac{1}{K_2}$

We are given:

$K_1=9.57\times 10^{-8}$

$K_2=1.46\times 10^{-19}$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$K_c=\frac{1}{(9.57\times 10^{-8})}\times \frac{1}{(1.46\times 10^{-19})}=7.16\times 10^{25}$

Hence, the value of $K_c$ for the final reaction is $7.16\times 10^{25}$
