Hey Thushan, I have some questions about the book
1. In test 3
Q2a) determine the equilibrium yield of HI in this reaction.
The ans is 0.316*100/0.4= 79%
Because the percentage of yield is how much reactants converted to products so I do the other way
= 0.316(1+127).100/0.2*2+2*127*0.2= 79%
Is it right or wrong?
Q2f) the ans: the mark should be awarded if "neither" is circled. But there is no answer given as "neither"
I think it should be "no change"
Q2g) the ans: Dave's container must be of a higher temperature (...) the reaction is exothermic and at higher temperature K does
decrease, hence the yield decreases
But the question gives that delta H>0 so it should be endothermic and Jo's container must be at higher temperature, not Dave's
2. In test 5
Q2d) the explanation and the model answer is different?!?
The sample answer is n(CH3COOH)final=n(CH3COOH)initial-n(CH3COOH)react
= 0.505*0.990+n(HCl) ?!?
= 0.500-0.0100*10.0=0.600 mol ?!?
The explanation: n(CH3COOH)final=n(CH3COOH)initial+n(CH3COOH) produced
=0.5+0.01*10=0.600 mol
Iam so confused when reading the sample answer and the explanation
