Observe the following equilibrium in a 1 L flask. A ( ~g ) B ( ~g ) At T ( K ), the equilibrium concentrations of A and B are 0.5 M and 0.375 M respectively. 0.1 moles of A is added into the flask and heated to T ( K ) to establish the equilibrium again. The new equilibrium concentrations (in M) of A and B are respectively

Quantrex Academy · Accepted Answer

Correct answer: C. 0.557,0.418.

Initial equilibrium: [A]=0.5 M, [B]=0.375 M; K_c= 0.375 0.5 =0.75 After adding 0.1 mol A: [A]=0.6 M, [B]=0.375 M; Q=0.625 Q Let x be A that decomposes: 0.375+x 0.6-x =0.75 0.375+x=0.45-0.75x 1.75x=0.075; x≈0.0429 New [A]=0.6-0.0429=0.557 M; [B]=0.375+0.0429=0.418 M
