Determine the value of the equilibrium constant for the reaction 2 B r - ( a q ) + I 2 ( s ) ⇌ B r 2 ( l ) + 2 I - ( a q ) E c e l l o = - 0.54 V
Options
- A5.01 × 1 0 - 19
- B18.30
- C1.7 × 1 0 54
- D1.9 × 1 0 18
Correct answer
A. 5.01 × 1 0 - 19
Step-by-step solution
The relation between equilibrium constant (K) and E c e l l o is given as log K = E c e l l o . n 0.059 V here, n = 2 = - 0.54 V × 2 0.059 V = - 1.08 0.059 = - 18.3 On taking antilog K = 5.01 × 1 0 - 19
