The diagram above represents the equilibrium between the two isomers of C2H2Cl2, and the table provides the data collected in an experiment to determine its equilibrium constant, KcKc, at 490K. In a second experiment done at the same temperature, [Z]eq≈1.0 M[Z]eq≈1.0 M. Which of the following is the approximate equilibrium concentration of YY in the second experiment, and why?

[Y]eq = 1.5 M because the ratio [Z]eq/[Y]eq should remain constant when the reaction is done at the same temperature.

Because pure H2 is a hazardous substance, safer and more cost effective techniques to store it as a solid for shipping purposes have been developed. One such method is the reaction represented above, which occurs at 200°C.

increasing the temperature and decreasing the pressure by increasing the volume

2NO2(g)⇄N2O4(g)Kc=200 The equilibrium system shown above is represented in the diagram below in which each molecule represents one mole of the substance in a 100.L container at a constant temperature. Additional N2O4(g) is added to the container and allowed to reestablish equilibrium. Which of the following best represents the system after the equilibrium has been reestablished?

the one with 5 molecules

Refer to the following. PCl5(g) ⇄ PCl3(g) + Cl2(g) PCl5(g) decomposes into PCl3(g) and Cl2(g) according to the equation above. A pure sample of PCl5(g) is placed in a rigid, evacuated 1.00 L container. The initial pressure of the PCl5(g) is 1.00 atm. The temperature is held constant until the PCl5(g) reaches equilibrium with its decomposition products. The figures below show the initial and equilibrium conditions of the system. Additional Cl2(g) is injected into the system at equilibrium. Which of the following graphs best shows the rate of the reverse reaction as a function of time? (Assume that the time for injection and mixing of the additional Cl2(g) is negligible.)

the one with the highest spike

On the basis of the information above, the dissolution of FeF2 in acidic solution is

thermodynamically favorable, because K3 > 1
