Q 1 :    

For the reaction 2AB+C, Kc=4×10-3.  At a given time, the composition of the reaction mixture is: [A]=[B]=[C]=2×10-3M.

Then, which of the following is correct?                  [2024]

  • Reaction is at equilibrium.

     

  • Reaction has a tendency to go in forward direction.

     

  • Reaction has a tendency to go in backward direction.

     

  • Reaction has gone to completion in forward direction.

     

(3)

For the reaction,

2AB+C  ;  KC=4×10-3

QC=[B][C][A]2=2×10-3×2×10-3(2×10-3)2=1

Since QC>KC, hence, the reaction will proceed in the direction of reactants (i.e., backward direction).



Q 2 :    

If the value of equilibrium constant for a particular reaction is 1.6×1012, then at equilibrium the system will contain        [2015]

  • mostly products

     

  • similar amounts of reactants and products

     

  • all reactants

     

  • mostly reactants

     

(1)

The value of K is high which means reaction proceeds almost to completion i.e., the system will contain mostly products.
