(b) adding O2 to the system;
(c) decreasing the temperature?
(d) What change would you expect in the value of equilibrium constant by
increasing the temperature?

what would the concentration of NO be if this equilibrium were established?
8. At 25 oC Kc = 0.145 for the following reaction in the solvent CCl4.

A solution was prepared with the following initial concentrations:


[BrCl] = 0.0400 mol dm-3, [Cl2] = 0.0200 mol dm-3, [Br2] = 0.0300 mol dm-3.

containing Cu2+ ions and Fe2+ ions, CuS is precipitated but FeS is not
precipitated.
Ksp (CuS) = 6 x 10-36 mol2 dm-6 . Ksp (FeS) = 6 x 10-18 mol2 dm-6 .

hydrochloric acid and increases on the addition of concentrated
hydrochloric acid.

precipitate which is soluble in aqueous ammonium chloride.
