For the given reaction, choose the correct expression of K C from the following: Fe 3 + aq + SCN - aq ⇌ ( FeSCN ) 2 + aq
Options
- AK C = F e S C N 2 + F e 3 + S C N -
- BK C = F e 3 + S C N - F e S C N 2 +
- CK C = F e S C N 2 + F e 3 + 2 S C N - 2
- DK C = F e S C N 2 + 2 F e 3 + S C N -
Correct answer
A. K C = F e S C N 2 + F e 3 + S C N -
Step-by-step solution
The equilibrium constant of a chemical reaction (usually denoted by the symbol K) provides insight into the relationship between the products and reactants when a chemical reaction reaches equilibrium. For example, the equilibrium constant of concentration (denoted by K c ) of a chemical reaction at equilibrium can be defined as the ratio of the concentration of products to the concentration of the reactants, each raised to their respective stoichiometric coefficients. It is important to note that there are differe
