NEET2008ChemistryChemical EquilibriumActual
If the concentration of OH ⁻ ions in the reaction Fe ( OH )₃(s) Fe ³⁺(a q)+3 OH (a q) is decreased by 1 4 times, then equilibrium concentration of Fe ³⁺ will increase by
Options
- A8 times
- B16 times
- C64 times
- D4 times
Correct answer
C. 64 times
Step-by-step solution
Key Idea : The concentration of solids taken to be unity. aligned & Fe ( OH )₃(s) Fe ³⁺(a q)+3 OH ⁻(a q) & K= [ Fe ³⁺ ] [ OH ⁻ ]^3 aligned Hence, if OH ⁻ ion concentration is decreased by 1 4 times, then equilibrium concentration of Fe ³⁺ will increase by 64 times.
