General Chemistry

In the previous post, we talked about ICE tables which we use for determining the equilibrium concentrations based on the equilibrium constant, reaction quotient, and the initial concentrations of the reactants and products.

Below are some additional practice examples on the concept of ICE tables and equilibrium concentrations.

Practice

1.

The equilibrium constant for the following reaction at 600 oC is determined to be Kc = 0.495:

 

H2O(g) + CO(g) ⇆ H2(g) + CO2(g)

 

Calculate the number of H2 moles that are present at equilibrium if a mixture of 0.400 mole CO and 0.500 mole H2O is heated to 600°C in a 10.0-L container.

The equilibrium constant Kc for the following reaction at 800°C is 3.74 x 105

 

H2(g) + I2(g) ⇆ 2HI(g)

 

If 6.25 moles of HI were initially added to a 15.0-L empty vessel, what would the concentrations of H2, I2, and HI be at equilibrium.

The equilibrium constant for the following reaction at 700 K is Kp = 6.7 x 10-3

 

CO(g) + 2H2(g) ⇆ CH3OH(g)

 

A reaction mixture contains 0.248 atm of H2, 0.085 atm of CO, and 0.598 atm of CH3OH. Is the reaction mixture at equilibrium? If not, in what direction will the reaction proceed?

Consider the following equilibrium:

 

2NO(g) + 2H2(g) ⇆ N2(g) + 2H2O(g)

 

Initially, there are 0.15 moles of NO and 0.25 moles of H2, in a 10.0-L container. If there are 0.056 moles of NO at equilibrium, how many moles of N2 are present at equilibrium?
