Calculation of the Equilibrium Constant • 1.00 mol SO2 and 1.00 mol O2 are confined at 1000 K in a 1.00-liter container. At equilibrium, 0.925 mol SO3 has been formed. Calculate Kc for the reaction 2SO2(g) + O2(g) 2SO3(g) at 1000 K. Solution: 2SO2(g) + O2(g) 2SO3(g) Initial moles 1.00 1.00 0 Change - 2y - y + 2y Moles at equil. 1.00 – 2y 1.00 – y 0 + 2y = 0.925 mol n SO3 = 2y = 0.925 mol n SO2 = 1.00 – 2y, 1.00 – 0.925 = 0.075 mol n O2 = 1.00 – y, 1.00 – 0.46 = 0.54 mol joma
2SO2(g) + O2(g) 2SO3(g) • K = [SO3]2/[SO2]2 [O2] • K = [0.925]2/[0.075]2 [0.54] • K = 282 joma
2) 3.00 moles of pure SO3 are introduced into an 8.00-liter container at 1105 K. At equilibrium 0.58 mole of O2 has been formed. Calculate Kc for the reaction:2 SO3(g) 2 SO2(g) + O2(g) at 1105 K. • Answer: 2 SO3(g) 2 SO2(g) + O2(g) Initial: 3.00 0 0 Change: - 2x + 2x + 1x Equilibrium: 3.00-2x 0+2x 0+1x= 0.58 mole joma

3) A 1-liter container is filled with 0.50 mol of HI at 448oC. The value of the equilibrium constant for the reaction: H2(g) + I2(g) 2 HI(g) at this temperature is 50.5. What are the concentrations of H2, I2 and HI in the vessel at equilibrium? Answer: Given: K = 50.5 H2(g) + I2(g) 2 HI(g) Initial: 0 0 0.50 mol Change: x x - 2x Equilibrium: 0+x 0+x 0.50-2x joma
K = [HI]2/[H2] [I2] • 50.5 = [0.5 – 2x]2/[x] [x] • (x = - 0.0979 mol) or (x = 0.0549 mol) • x = 0.0549 mol H2(g) + I2(g) 2 HI(g) Equilibrium: 0+x 0+x 0.50-2x • [H2] and [I2] = 0.0549 M [HI] = 0.39 M joma

4) For the reaction: H2(g) + I2(g) 2 HI(g) ; the equilibrium constant at 420oC is 54.3. Suppose that the initial concentrations of H2 and I2 forming HI are 0.00623 M, 0.00414 M, and 0.0224 M respectively, what are the concentrations of these species at equilibrium? Answer: H2(g) + I2(g) 2 HI(g) Initial: 0.00623 0.00414 0.0224 Change: - x - x + 2x Equil.: 0.00623-x 0.00414-x 0.0224+2x joma
