<u>Answer:</u> The value of equilibrium constant for the given reaction is 56.61
<u>Explanation:</u>
We are given:
Initial moles of iodine gas = 0.100 moles
Initial moles of hydrogen gas = 0.100 moles
Volume of container = 1.00 L
Molarity of the solution is calculated by the equation:



Equilibrium concentration of iodine gas = 0.0210 M
The chemical equation for the reaction of iodine gas and hydrogen gas follows:

<u>Initial:</u> 0.1 0.1
<u>At eqllm:</u> 0.1-x 0.1-x 2x
Evaluating the value of 'x'

The expression of
for above equation follows:
![K_c=\frac{[HI]^2}{[H_2][I_2]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=K_c%3D%5Cfrac%7B%5BHI%5D%5E2%7D%7B%5BH_2%5D%5BI_2%5D%7D)
![[HI]_{eq}=2x=(2\times 0.079)=0.158M](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BHI%5D_%7Beq%7D%3D2x%3D%282%5Ctimes%200.079%29%3D0.158M)
![[H_2]_{eq}=(0.1-x)=(0.1-0.079)=0.0210M](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BH_2%5D_%7Beq%7D%3D%280.1-x%29%3D%280.1-0.079%29%3D0.0210M)
![[I_2]_{eq}=0.0210M](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BI_2%5D_%7Beq%7D%3D0.0210M)
Putting values in above expression, we get:

Hence, the value of equilibrium constant for the given reaction is 56.61
Answer : The molar mass of the solute would be low.
Explanation :
Formula used for depression in freezing point is:

where,
= change in freezing point
= freezing point of solution
= freezing point of water
i = Van't Hoff factor
= freezing point constant
m = molality
= mass of solute
= mass of solvent
= molar mass of solute
From the formula we conclude that, when the freezing point of the solution read incorrectly that is freezing point of the solution is lower than the true freezing point then this means that change in freezing point would be high and the molar mass of the solute would be low.
Hence, the molar mass of the solute would be low.
