A(g) + B(g) C(g) 0.50 mol of A and 0.40 mol of B were mixed in a 10 dm3 container. At equilibrium there were 0.2 mol of A. What is the value of Kc?
CALCULATIONS INVOLVING Kc • construct the balanced equation, including state symbols (aq), (g) etc. • determine the number of moles of each species at equilibrium • divide moles by volume (in dm3) to get the equilibrium concentrations in mol dm-3 • (If no volume is quoted, use a V; it will probably cancel out) • from the equation constructed in the first step, write out an expression for Kc. • substitute values from third step and calculate the value of Kc with any units • Example 1 • One mole of ethanoic acid reacts with one mole of ethanol at 298K. When equilibrium is reached it is found that two thirds of the acid has reacted. Calculate the value of Kc.
