1. Write the equilibrium expression (Kc) for the following reversible reaction:
2NO(g) + O2(g) ⇌ 2NO2(g)
2. Write the equilibrium expression (Kc) for the decomposition of phosphorus pentachloride:
PCl5(g) ⇌ PCl3(g) + Cl2(g)
3. In an equilibrium expression, the concentrations of are placed in the numerator, and the concentrations of are placed in the denominator.
4. Pure solids and pure liquids are from equilibrium expressions because their concentrations are considered .
5. Which of the following is the correct equilibrium expression (Kc) for the reaction: N2(g) + 3H2(g) ⇌ 2NH3(g)?
Kc = [N2][H2]³ / [NH3]²
Kc = [NH3]² / [N2][H2]³
Kc = [NH3] / [N2][H2]
Kc = [N2][H2] / [NH3]
6. Write the equilibrium expression (Kc) for the following reaction:
CaCO3(s) ⇌ CaO(s) + CO2(g)
7. The equilibrium constant (Kc) for a reaction changes if the temperature changes.
True
False
8. The value of Kp is always equal to the value of Kc for any given reaction.
True
False
9. Write the equilibrium expression (Kp) for the following reaction:
2SO2(g) + O2(g) ⇌ 2SO3(g)
