If a system has a reaction quotient of 2.13 ✕ 10−15 at 100°C, what will happen to the concentrations of COBr2, CO, and Br2 as th

qaws [65]

This is an incomplete question, here is a complete question.

Consider the following equilibrium at 100°C.

$COBr_2(g)\rightleftharpoons CO(g)+Br_2(g)$

$K_c=4.74\times 10^4$

Concentration at equilibrium:

$[COBr_2]=1.58\times 10^{-6}M$

$[Co]=2.78\times 10^{-3}M$

$[Br_2]=2.51\times 10^{-5}M$

If a system has a reaction quotient of 2.13 × 10⁻¹⁵ at 100°c, what will happen to the concentrations of COBr₂, Co and Br₂ as the reaction proceeds to equilibrium?

Answer : The concentrations of Co and Br₂ decreases and the concentrations of COBr₂ increases.

Explanation :

Reaction quotient (Q) : It is defined as the measurement of the relative amounts of products and reactants present during a reaction at a particular time.

The given balanced chemical reaction is,

$COBr_2(g)\rightleftharpoons CO(g)+Br_2(g)$

The expression for reaction quotient will be :

$Q=\frac{[CO][Br_2]}{[COBr_2]}$

In this expression, only gaseous or aqueous states are includes and pure liquid or solid states are omitted.

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get

$Q=\frac{(2.78\times 10^{-3})\times (2.51\times 10^{-5})}{(1.58\times 10^{-6})}=4.42\times 10^{-2}$

The given equilibrium constant value is, $K_c=4.74\times 10^4$

Equilibrium constant : It is defined as the equilibrium constant. It is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants.

There are 3 conditions:

When $Q>K_c$ that means product > reactant. So, the reaction is reactant favored.

When $Q$ that means reactant > product. So, the reaction is product favored.

When $Q=K_c$ that means product = reactant. So, the reaction is in equilibrium.

From the above we conclude that, the $Q$ that means product < reactant. So, the reaction is product favored that means reaction must shift to the product (right) to be in equilibrium.

Hence, the concentrations of Co and Br₂ decreases and the concentrations of COBr₂ increases.

Physical Properties: Physical properties can be observed or measured without changing the composition of matter. Physical properties are used to observe and describe matter. so physical changes are the change in temperature of the land and the evaporation of water and change humidity of the air. chemical change is the ripening of the orange
