Solution:

[I⁻] = 0.0352M

Explanation:

Referring to the equilibrium:

I₃⁻(aq) ⇄ I₂(aq) + I⁻(aq)

Kc is defined by the equation:

Kc = 0.25 = [I₂] [I⁻] / [I₃⁻]

Equilibrium is established when the proportion [I₂] [I⁻] / [I₃⁻] matches 0.25

Initially, we have 0.0401M for both [I₂] and [I⁻]. When the reaction stabilizes, xM of both [I₂] and [I⁻] gets consumed, leading to xM of  [I₃⁻]. We represent this as:

[I₃⁻] = X

[I₂] = 0.0401M - X

[I⁻] = 0.0401M - X

X is referred to as the reaction coordinate.

Substituting into Kc gives:

0.25 = [I₂] [I⁻] / [I₃⁻]

0.25 = [0.0401M - X] [0.0401M - X] / [X]

0.25X = 0.00160801 - 0.0802X + X²

Thus, we have 0 = 0.00160801 - 0.3302X + X².

Solving for X yields:

X = 0.0049M → Valid solution

X = 0.3252M → Invalid solution due to negative concentrations.

The equilibrium concentrations calculate to:

[I₃⁻] = X

[I₂] = 0.0401M - X

[I⁻] = 0.0401M - X

[I₃⁻] = 0.0049M

[I₂] = 0.0352M

[I⁻] = 0.0352M

A 1.67-g sample of solid silver reacted in excess chlorine gas to give a2.21-g sample of pure solid Agcl.The heat given off in t
alisha [2963]
Mass of Ag = 1.67 g Mass of Cl = 2.21 g Heat released = 1.96 kJ Explanation: To find the enthalpy of formation of AgCl(s), we have the reaction: 2Ag(s) + Cl2(g) → 2AgCl(s). First, we need to calculate the moles of Ag and Cl from their masses. The atomic mass of Ag is 108 g/mol, thus moles of Ag = 1.67/108 = 0.0155 moles. The atomic mass of Cl is 35 g/mol, therefore moles of Cl = 2.21/35 = 0.0631 moles. Since Ag's moles are much less than Cl's, silver is the limiting reagent. Based on the stoichiometry of the reaction, the number of moles of AgCl produced equals 0.0155 moles. The enthalpy of formation of AgCl = 1.96 kJ/0.0155 moles = 126.5 kJ/mol. Hence, the enthalpy of formation is 126.5 kJ/mol.
