3        Consider the mechanism:
2NO <===> N2O2 Fast
N2O2 + H2 ---> N2O + H2O Slow

2NO + 2H2 -->N2 + 2H2O

 

b) What are the intermediates?

N2O2
N2O

 

 

c) What is the rate expression for the reaction?

  rate=k[N2O2][H2] for slow step
Keq=[N2O2]/[NO]2  ==> [N2O2]= Keqx[NO]2

[H2S]=2.00 M, [CS2]=.500 M, and [H2]= 3.00 M.
 
 
Q=[CS2][H2]4/[H2S]2[CH4]=(.5)(3)4/(2)2(1.5)=6.75  since Q>Kc the reaction will shift left.
 

 
b) If the reaction is at equilibrium, in what direction would reaction shift if you:

b. adding H2S?              e. adding Ni catalyst?

13       Calculate the [PO4-3] in a 3.00 M phosphoric acid sloution.
 
K1K2K3=Ka=[H+]3[PO4]/[H3PO4]
Remember that all of the [H+] comes from the first dissociaiton. If you write the equilibrium expression for the first dissociation, and solve for the [H+] you get:
[H+]={K1[H3PO4]}.5
Solving the first expression for phosphate and plugging in the above [H+] yields:
[PO4]=Ka[H3PO4]/ [H+]3=Ka[H3PO4]/ ({K1[H3PO4]}.5)3

  Ka(3.00)/ ({K1(3.00)}.5)3 You'll need to look up K1
