For \( \ce{HA <=> H+ + A-} \), if \( K_a = 1.0 \times 10^{-5} \) and \( [\ce{HA}] = 0.05 \, \text{M} \) at equilibrium, what is \( [\ce{H+}] \)?
\( K_a = \frac{[\ce{H+}][\ce{A-}]}{[\ce{HA}]} = \frac{x^2}{0.05 - x} \approx \frac{x^2}{0.05} = 1.0 \times 10^{-5} \), \( x^2 = 5.0 \times 10^{-7} \), \( x = 7.07 \times 10^{-4} \, \text{M} \).
A weak acid \( \ce{HX} \) (\( K_a = 2.0 \times 10^{-5} \)) is mixed with 0.06 M \( \ce{NaX} \) in a 1:2 volume ratio (acid:salt). If \( [\ce{HX}] = 0.04 \, \text{M} \) after mixing, what is the pH?
Total volume = 3V, \( [\ce{X-}] = \frac{0.06 \times 2V}{3V} = 0.04 \, \text{M} \), \( \text{p}K_a = 4.7 \), \( \text{pH} = 4.7 + \log \frac{0.04}{0.04} = 4.7 \).
A weak acid \( \ce{HY} \) (\( K_a = 1.0 \times 10^{-4} \)) is mixed with its salt \( \ce{NaY} \) in a 2:1 molar ratio. If \( [\ce{HY}] = 0.2 \, \text{M} \), what is the pH?
\( [\ce{Y-}] = 0.1 \, \text{M} \), \( \text{p}K_a = 4 \), \( \text{pH} = \text{p}K_a + \log \frac{[\ce{Y-}]}{[\ce{HY}]} = 4 + \log \frac{0.1}{0.2} = 4 + \log 0.5 = 4 - 0.301 = 3.7 \).
Which of the following is a Bronsted-Lowry acid?
A Bronsted-Lowry acid donates a proton. \( \ce{HCO3-} \) can donate \( \ce{H+} \) to form \( \ce{CO3^{2-}} \).
For the reaction \( \ce{H2(g) + I2(g) <=> 2HI(g)} \), the equilibrium concentrations are \( [\ce{H2}] = 0.02 \, \text{M} \), \( [\ce{I2}] = 0.02 \, \text{M} \), and \( [\ce{HI}] = 0.16 \, \text{M} \). What is the value of the equilibrium constant \( K_c \)?
\( K_c = \frac{[\ce{HI}]^2}{[\ce{H2}][\ce{I2}]} = \frac{(0.16)^2}{(0.02)(0.02)} = \frac{0.0256}{0.0004} = 64 \).
For \( \ce{N2(g) + 3H2(g) <=> 2NH3(g)} \), \( K_p = 4.0 \times 10^{-3} \) at 600 K. If 1 mole of \( \ce{N2} \) and 3 moles of \( \ce{H2} \) are in a 2 L vessel, what is \( P_{\ce{NH3}} \) at equilibrium (\( R = 0.0831 \, \text{bar L/mol K} \))?
Initial: \( P_{\ce{N2}} = \frac{1 \times 0.0831 \times 600}{2} = 24.93 \, \text{bar} \), \( P_{\ce{H2}} = 74.79 \, \text{bar} \). Let \( 2x \) be \( P_{\ce{NH3}} \), \( P_{\ce{N2}} = 24.93 - x \), \( P_{\ce{H2}} = 74.79 - 3x \). \( K_p = \frac{(P_{\ce{NH3}})^2}{P_{\ce{N2}} (P_{\ce{H2}})^3} = \frac{(2x)^2}{(24.93 - x)(74.79 - 3x)^3} = 4.0 \times 10^{-3} \). Solving, \( x \approx 0.8 \), \( P_{\ce{NH3}} = 2 \times 0.8 = 1.6 \, \text{bar} \).
For \( \ce{2A(g) <=> B(g) + C(g)} \), \( K_p = 0.5 \) at 600 K. If the initial pressure of \( \ce{A} \) is 2 atm, what is \( P_{\ce{B}} \) at equilibrium?
Let \( P_{\ce{B}} = P_{\ce{C}} = x \), \( P_{\ce{A}} = 2 - 2x \), total pressure = \( 2 - 2x + 2x = 2 \). \( K_p = \frac{P_{\ce{B}} P_{\ce{C}}}{(P_{\ce{A}})^2} = \frac{x^2}{(2 - 2x)^2} = 0.5 \), \( \frac{x}{2 - 2x} = \sqrt{0.5} \approx 0.707 \), \( x \approx 0.828 \, \text{atm} \).
For \( \ce{2X(g) <=> Y(g)} \), if \( K_p = 0.25 \) at 300 K (\( R = 0.0831 \, \text{bar L/mol K} \)), what is \( K_c \)?
\( K_p = K_c (RT)^{\Delta n} \), \( \Delta n = 1 - 2 = -1 \), \( RT = 0.0831 \times 300 = 24.93 \). Thus, \( K_c = K_p \times RT = 0.25 \times 24.93 \approx 6.23 \).
For the reaction \( \ce{X(g) + Y(g) <=> 2Z(g)} \), if \( K_c = 25 \) and at equilibrium \( [\ce{Z}] = 0.5 \, \text{M} \), what is \( [\ce{X}] \) if \( [\ce{Y}] = 0.02 \, \text{M} \)?
\( K_c = \frac{[\ce{Z}]^2}{[\ce{X}][\ce{Y}]} = 25 \). Substituting, \( 25 = \frac{(0.5)^2}{[\ce{X}](0.02)} = \frac{0.25}{0.02 [\ce{X}]} \), \( 25 \times 0.02 [\ce{X}] = 0.25 \), \( 0.5 [\ce{X}] = 0.25 \), \( [\ce{X}] = 0.5 \, \text{M} \).
In a physical equilibrium \( \ce{H2O(l) <=> H2O(g)} \), what happens if the temperature is increased?
Increasing temperature favors the endothermic process (evaporation), shifting the equilibrium towards the vapor phase.
