Question

1. Write equilibrium constant expressions for the following reactions:

1a.)  HCOOH(aq) ⇌ H+(aq) + HCOO–(aq)

1b.) 2HgO(s) ⇌ 2Hg(l) + O2(g)

2.) For the reaction I2(g) ⇌ 2I(g), Kc = 3.8 x 10–5 at 727°C. (a) What is Kc for the reverse reaction at this temperature? (b) Calculate Kc for the reaction ½I2(g) ⇌ I(g).
