Practice Questions
Q1
What is the equilibrium constant (Kc) expression for the reaction: 2A + B ⇌ C?
Kc = [C] / ([A]^2[B])
Kc = [A]^2[B] / [C]
Kc = [C] / [A]^2
Kc = [A]^2 / ([B][C])
Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions
What is the equilibrium constant (Kc) expression for the reaction: 2A + B ⇌ C?
Step 1: Identify the balanced chemical equation. In this case, it is 2A + B ⇌ C.
Step 2: Identify the products and reactants. Here, C is the product, and 2A and B are the reactants.
Step 3: Write the expression for the equilibrium constant Kc. It is the concentration of products divided by the concentration of reactants.
Step 4: For each substance, raise its concentration to the power of its coefficient in the balanced equation. C has a coefficient of 1, A has a coefficient of 2, and B has a coefficient of 1.
