In collecting the precipitate, it is inappropriate to heat <span>the reacted mixture and evaporate off the water because it is possible that the mixture contains other substances that precipitates as well when the mixture is being heated so you will not be able to collect what you want.</span>

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:

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