Write the expression for the equilibrium constant, K_c for each of the following reactions (1)2NOCl_((g)) hArr 2NO_((g)) + Cl_(2(g)) (2) 2Cu(NO_3)_(2(s))hArr 2CuO_((s)) + 4NO_(2(g)) + O_(2(g)) (3)CH_3COOC_2H_(5(aq)) + H_2O_((l)) hArr CH_3COOH_((aq)) + C_2H_5OH_((aq)) (4) Fe_((aq))^(3+) + 3OH_((aq))^(-) hArr Fe(OH)_(3(s)) (5)I_(2(s)) + 5F_(2(s)) hArr 2IF_(5(g)) |
|
Answer» Solution :(1)`K_c=([NO_((g))]^2[Cl_(2(g))])/([NOCl_((g))]^2)` (2)`K_c=([CuO_((s))]^2[NO_(2(g))]^4 [O_(2(g))])/([Cu(NO_3)_(2(s))]^2)` In this equilibrium CUO and `Cu(NO_3)_2` are solid. So, at equilibrium its CONCENTRATION are not changed and constants. So, ignore in expression, `K_c=[NO_(2(g))]^4 [O_(2(g))]` (3)`K_c=([CH_3COOH_((aq))][C_2H_5OH_((aq))])/([CH_3COOC_2H_(5_(aq))][H_2O_((l))])` Here , `H_2O` is liquid its concentration is constant during REACTION, so ignore it. `K_c=([CH_3COOH_((aq))][C_2H_5OH_((aq))])/([CH_3COOC_2H_(5(aq))])` (4)`K_c=([FE(OH)_(3(s))])/([Fe_((aq))^(3+) ][OH_((aq))^(-)]^3)` In this equilibrium `Fe(OH)_3` is solid and amount of solid i.e. its concentration is equal to density. Density is constant at temperature, so its not affect the equilibrium constant. `(Fe(OH)_(3(s)))` is ignore `therefore K_c=1/([Fe^(3+)][OH^-]^3)` (5)`K_c` for the product `IF_5` of the reaction of `I_(2(s))` and `F_(2(g))` is , `K_c=([IF_(5(g))]^2)/([I_(2(s))] [F_(2(g))]^5)` `I_(2(s))` is solid so its concentration remain constant so it is ignore in expression. `therefore K_c=([IF_(5(g))]^2)/([F_(2(g))]^5)` |

Write the half cell reaction and the overall cells reaction for the electrochemical cell : Zn|Zn^(2+)(1.0M)||Pb^(2+)(1.0M)|Pb Calculate the standard e.m.f for the cell if standard electrode potentials (reduction ) for Pb^(2+)|Pb and Zn^(2+)|Zn electrodes are -0.126 V and -0.763 V respectively. |
|
Answer» Solution :Zn ELECTRODE acts as anode while Pb electrode acts as cathode and , therefore , oxidation OCCURS at zinc electrode and REDUCTION occurs at lead electrode . The half cell reactions are : Oxidation half reactions : `Zn(s) rarr Zn^(2+)(aq)+2e^(-)` Reduction half reaction : `Pb^(2+)(aq) +2e^(-) rarr Pb(s)` Overall cell reaction `Zn(s) +Pb^(2+)(aq) rarrZn^(2+) (aq) +Pb(s)` E.M.F = `E_R^@ - E_L^@` `=-0.126-(-0.763)` = 0.637 V. Note . The EMF of the cell can also simply be calculated as : `E_("cell")^@=E_R^@-E_L^@` If the value of `E_("cell")^@ ` is positive , then the cell is correctly REPRESENTED , i.e. , oxidation occurs at left electrode (anode) and reduction occurs at the right electrode (cathode). On the other hand , if the value of `E_("cell")^@` comes out to be negative , then the cells is wrongly represented . Its order is reversed to get positive value for `E_("cell")^@`. |
