The standard Gibbs energy change at $300 \, K$ for the reaction $2A \rightleftharpoons B + C$ is $2494.2 \, J$. At a given time,the composition of the reaction mixture is $[A] = 1/2, [B] = 2$ and $[C] = 1/2$. The reaction proceeds in the:

  • A
    forward direction because $Q < K_c$
  • B
    reverse direction because $Q < K_c$
  • C
    forward direction because $Q > K_c$
  • D
    reverse direction because $Q > K_c$

An equilibrium shifts towards reactants at higher temperatures. Find the correct graph.

One mole each of $He$ and $A(g)$ are taken in a $10 \text{ L}$ closed flask and heated to $400 \text{ K}$ to establish the following equilibrium: $A(g) \rightleftharpoons B(g)$. $K_{c}$ for this reaction at $400 \text{ K}$ is $4.0$. The partial pressures (in $\text{atm}$) of $He$ and $B(g)$ are respectively (at equilibrium) (Assume $He$, $A(g)$ and $B(g)$ behave as ideal gases) (Given: $R = 0.082 \text{ L atm K}^{-1} \text{ mol}^{-1}$)

Solid carbon, $CaO$ and $CaCO_3$ are mixed and allowed to attain equilibrium at $T \text{ K}$. $CaCO_3(s) \rightleftharpoons CaO(s) + CO_2(g)$ $K_{p1} = 0.08 \text{ atm}$. $C(s) + CO_2(g) \rightleftharpoons 2CO(g)$ $K_{p2} = 2 \text{ atm}$. The partial pressure of $CO$ is . . . . . . $\times 10^{-1} \text{ atm}$.

At $717 \ K$,$3.2 \ mol$ of $HI$ is heated in a closed tube. $20\%$ of $HI$ decomposes at equilibrium according to the reaction $2HI_{(g)} \rightleftharpoons H_{2_{(g)}} + I_{2_{(g)}}$. Find $K_c$ and the moles of $HI$,$H_2$,and $I_2$ at equilibrium.
