Question

For the reaction, determine the equilibrium constant and identify if the reaction is reactant or product favored at equilibrium

Answer 1

$\qquad\qquad\huge\underline{{\sf Answer}}$

Let's calculate Equilibrium constant for the following reaction. $\sf{K_c}$

if we balance the equation, we will get :

$\qquad\sf{C_{(s)}+ CO_2\:{(g)} \leftrightarrow2\: CO_{(g)}}$

According to question ~

• $\qquad \sf{K_c = \dfrac{[CO]²}{[CO_2]}}$

• $\qquad \sf{K_c = \dfrac{({5.4×10}^{-5})²}{({8.3×{10}^{-6}}} }$

• $\qquad \sf{K_c = \dfrac{(29.16×{10}^{-10})}{({8.3×{10}^{-6}}}}$

• $\qquad \sf{K_c = \dfrac{{29.16 }}{{8.3}} ×{10}^{-4}}$

• $\qquad \sf K_c = 3.51×{10}^{-4}$
