Answer:
1.98 M
Explanation:
Given data
- Initial volume (V₁): 93.2 mL
- Initial concentration (C₁): 2.03 M
- Volume of water added: 3.92 L
Step 1: Convert V₁ to liters
We will use the relationship 1 L = 1000 mL.
Step 2: Calculate the final volume (V₂)
The final volume is the sum of the initial volume and the volume of water.
Step 3: Calculate the final concentration (C₂)
We will use the dilution rule.
The equilibrium constant of a reaction is defined as:
"The ratio between equilibrium concentrations of products powered to their reaction quotient and equilibrium concentration of reactants powered to thier reaction quotient".
The reaction quotient, Q, has the same algebraic expressions but use the actual concentrations of reactants.
To solve this question we need this additional information:
<em>For this reaction, K = 6.0x10⁻² and the initial concentrations of the reactants are:</em>
<em>[N₂] = 4.0M; [NH₃] = 1.0x10⁻⁴M and [H₂] = 1.0x10⁻²M</em>
<em />
Thus, for the reaction:
N₂ + 3H₂ ⇄ 2NH₃
The equilibrium constant, K, of this reaction, is defined as:
And Q, is:
Where actual concentrations are:
[NH₃] = 1.0x10⁻⁴M
[N₂] = 4.0M
[H₂] = 2.5x10⁻¹M
Replacing:
As Q < K,
