Test: Chemical Equilibrium: Law of Mass Action - Question 1

Direction (Q. Nos. 1-12) This section contains 12 multiple choice questions. Each question has four choices (a), (b), (c) and (d), out of which ONLY ONE option is correct.
 

Q.Conversion factor for converting partial pressures (in Kp) to active masses (in Kc) is

Detailed Solution for Test: Chemical Equilibrium: Law of Mass Action - Question 1

Kp = kc(RT)∆ng 
So to convert kp to kc we have, kc = kp(1/RT)∆ng.
So, the converting factor is 1/RT

Test: Chemical Equilibrium: Law of Mass Action - Question 2

For which of the following reactions does the equilibrium constant depends on the unit of concentration?

Detailed Solution for Test: Chemical Equilibrium: Law of Mass Action - Question 2

For the reaction COCl2 (g) ⇌ CO(g) + Cl2 (g), the equilibrium constant depends on the units of concentration.
For this reaction, the number of moles of reactants is not equal to the number of moles of products. So in the equilibrium constant expression, the units of concentration do not cancel out.
K = [CO] [Cl2] ÷ [COCl2]
K = mol/L × mol/L ÷ mol/L = mol/L

Test: Chemical Equilibrium: Law of Mass Action - Question 3

The concentration of the oxides of nitrogen are monitored in air-pollution reports. At 25°C, the equilibrium constant for the reaction,


 is 1.3 x 106 and that for 


is 6.5 x 10-16 (when each species is expressed in terms of partial pressure).
For the reaction,

equilibrium constant is

Detailed Solution for Test: Chemical Equilibrium: Law of Mass Action - Question 3

Given equations are 
NO (g) + ½ O2 (g) ⇌ NO2 (g) ----------(i) k1 = 1.3×106
And ½ N2 (g) + ½ O2 (g)     ⇌     NO(g) ----------(ii) k2 = 6.5×10-16
To get the reaction, N2(g) + 2O2(g) ⇌ 2NO2(g) ----------(iii) k3
We multiply eqn (i) and eqn (ii) by 2 and adding both reaction, we get eqn (iii)
k3 = k12×k22
    = (1.3×106)2×(6.5×10-16)2
    = 1.69×1012×42.25×10-32
    = 7.14×10-19

For the reaction in equilibrium, A B

Thus, K is

Detailed Solution for Test: Chemical Equilibrium: Law of Mass Action - Question 5

From the  reaction
-d[A]/dt = d[B] /dt
⇒2.3 × 106 [A] = k [B]
 as given in question [B] /[A] = 4 × 108
so [A] / [B] = 1/ 4 ×108
⇒ 2.3 × 106 . [A] /[B] = k
⇒  2.3 × 106 / 4 × 108 = k
Or k = 5.8 × 10-3 /sec¹

Test: Chemical Equilibrium: Law of Mass Action - Question 19

Direction (Q. Nos. 19 and 20) This section contains 2 questions. when worked out will result in an integer from 0 to 9 (both inclusive)

Q. At elevated temperature, PCl5 dissociates as,


At 300°C,Kp = 11.8 and
[PCI3]= [Cl2]= 0.01 moi L-1 at equilibrium.
[PCI5] = x x 10-4 mol L-1 what is the value of x?


Detailed Solution for Test: Chemical Equilibrium: Law of Mass Action - Question 19

Applying Kp = kcRT∆ng
11.8 = kc(0.0821)(273+300)(1)
Kc = 0.25
Applying Kc = [PCl3][Cl2]/[PCl5]
0.25 = 10-4 / [PCl5]
[PCl5] = 10-4/0.25
= 4×10-4
Therefore x = 4

Test: Chemical Equilibrium: Law of Mass Action - Question 20

What is Kp for the equation,

When the system contains equal number of Cl (g)atom and Cl2(g) molecules at 1 bar and 300 K?


Detailed Solution for Test: Chemical Equilibrium: Law of Mass Action - Question 20

The correct answer is 2
2Cl(g) ⇌ Cl2(g)
Initially take moles of Cl on right hand side to be 1 then
2Cl           Cl2
1               -x
=1 - x.x
kP  will be equal to Kc because no. of moles are equal so 
1 - x = x
2x = 1
X = ½
Kp = x/1 - x. 1 - x
= ½ ÷ (½ * ½ )
=2
