Time

(i)

At a lower temp, the rate at which eqm is attained is slower. By LCP, since ΔH < 0, the position of eqm shifts to the right and produce heat so as to increase the temp. Hence, amt of CO2 is higher at eqm. Kc is also increased.

(ii)

A decrease in volume, which leads to an increase in concentration, neither favours the backward nor forward reaction since no. of molecules on both sides of the reaction is the same. The amt of CO2 produced is the same as (c). A rise in pressure increases the rate at which equilibrium is attained.

(iii)

In the presence of a suitable catalyst, the rate at which eqm is attained is faster. However, there is no effect on the amt of CO2 formed. Kc remains the same. Catalyst increases the rate at which equilibrium is attained but has no effect on position of equilibrium.

Chemical Equilibrium Kc = [PH3]-1[BCl3]-1=

(c)

Amt of PH3 = amt of BCl3 = 0.0432 x 0.5 = 0.0216 mol

(d)

Conc of PH3 = 0.0432 + 0.005/0.5 = 0.0532 mol dm-3 (before eqm) Let z be the conc reduced. Kc = [(0.0532 – z)(0.0432 – z)]-1 = 535 Solving, z = 0.00468 or 0.0917 (rejected) Hence, [BCl3] = 0.0432 – 0.00468 = 0.0385 mol dm-3

(e)

Actually nothing visible will happen. If some solid is removed, the system is still at equilibrium as the concentration of PH3 and BCl3 remain unchanged. If ALL Solid is removed Actually nothing visible will happen. If the solid PH3BCl3 is removed, the system will no longer be at equilibrium (eqm). (A state of dynamic eqm requires the presence of all reactants and products) Position of eqm will shift to the right to produce some PH3BCl3. This will immediately lower both conc of PH3 and BCl3 and the position of eqm will shift to the left again until they become the initial eqm values. Thus essentially nothing seems to happen. The value of Kc is not defined.

(f)

In the formation of PH3BCl3, a dative bond exists within the molecule of PH3BCl3. Thus the forward reaction is actually exothermic due to the formation of bonds. According to Le Chatelier’s Principle, when the system is heated, the position of eqm will shift to the left where heat is absorbed (because bond breaking will take place) and hence tends to reduce the temperature. At the same time, Kc will decrease.
