Fall 2020
Name: __________________________________
Direction: For exercises that require problem solving, you need to show the calculation set up leading to the
answer in order to receive credit. Make sure your answers contain the correct units.
1. Write an equilibrium constant expression for each chemical reaction:
Write Kc expression for A, B, C
A. CH4(g) + H2O(g)
B. NiO(s) + CO(g)
CO(g) + 3 H2(g)
Ni(s) + CO2(g)
C. C6H12O6(s) + 6 O2(g)
6 CO2(g) + 6 H2O(l)
Write Kp expression for D, E
D. CO2(g) + C(s)
E. 2 KClO3(s)
2 CO(g)
2 KCl(s) + 3 O2(g)
2. A chemist trying to synthesize a particular compound attempts two different synthesis reactions that yield the
same product:
reaction 1: A + B
P
K1 = 23.3
reaction 2: C + D
P
K2 = 2.2 x 104
K1 and K2 are the equilibrium constants for the reactions measured at room temperature (RT). However, upon
carrying out both reactions at RT under the same conditions for 15 minutes, the chemist finds that the reaction
with the smaller equilibrium constant produces more of the desired product. Explain how this might be possible.

Calculate the mass of CaO(s), in gram, and the pressure of CO2(g), in mmHg, that are present at equilibrium.
[Hint: Write the Kp equilibrium expression to find the partial pressure of CO2 at equilibrium. Then use the

At equilibrium, the total pressure in the system is 3.0 atm and the mole fraction of O2 is 0.12. Find Kp.
[Hint: Partial pressure of gas A (PA) = mole fraction of gas A (XA) x Total pressure (PT). Set up ICE table to
