3. Chemical reactions and equilibrium constants
(a) An alternative way of writing the reaction for the
dissolution of CdCO3(s) is to form the species HCO3- rather than
CO32-.
Write a balanced chemical reaction for CdCO3(s) dissolution with
HCO3- rather than CO32- as a product species.
Calculate an equilibrium constant and standard free energy of
reaction for your new reaction. You will need to look up some
equilibrium constants.
(b) How would you decide which reaction to use to describe the
equilibrium of CdCO3(s) with water? From the standpoint of chemical
equilibrium, does it matter? Explain.

SO3(g) can be produced by this two step process:
1.) 2FeS2 + 1 1/2 O2 = Fe2O3 + 4SO2
2.) SO2 + 1/2 O2 = So3

LAB Reaction Rates
Objectives
• Evaluate the effect of concentration on the rate of a chemical reaction. ν
• Examine the effect of temperature on the rate of a chemical reaction.
Background: Many people believe that you cannot perform chemical reactions without expensive equipment or costly chemicals. But this isn’t true; chemical reactions happen everywhere. All you need is a food store to find many substances that can produce exciting chemical reactions.

Safety Precautions
Procedure
1. Read the procedure and safety information, and complete the lab form.
2. Make data tables similar to those shown on the next page.
3. Prepare a 50 percent vinegar solution by mixing 30 mL of vinegar with 30 mL of water. This is solution A.
4. Prepare a 30 percent vinegar solution by mixing 30 mL of vinegar with 70 mL of water. This is solution B.
5. Prepare a 10 percent vinegar solution by mixing 30 mL of vinegar with 270 mL of water. This is solution C.
6. Pour the vinegar solutions into their associated 0.5-L plastic bottles labeled A, B, and C.
7. Mark a small test tube about 1–2 cm from its bottom. Fill the test tube to the line with baking soda. Pour the baking soda into one balloon.
8. Repeat step 7 with two more balloons. Be sure the amount of baking soda in each balloon is the same.
9. Place the mouth of one balloon over the mouth of one 0.5-L bottle. Do not let any of baking soda fall into the vinegar solution.
10. Repeat step 9 with the other two balloons and the remaining bottles.
Inquiry Lab
11. Lift each balloon to allow the baking soda to fall into each vinegar solution. Time how long it takes for the reaction to finish. Measure how much each balloon inflates. Record your observations in your Concentration data table.
12. Carefully remove the balloons from the bottles.
13. Rinse the plastic bottles with water.
14. Prepare a 30 percent vinegar solution by mixing
30 mL of vinegar with 70 mL of cold water.
15. Prepare two more similar solutions with room-temperature water and hot water.
16. Place the three solutions in the three
0.5-L plastic bottles.
17. Repeat steps 7 and 8 to refill the balloons
with baking soda.
18. Place the balloons back on the bottles, repeating steps 9 and 10.
19. Repeat step 11. Time how long it takes for the reaction to finish.
20. Measure how much each balloon inflates. Record your observations in your Temperature data table.

If water is pure enough and in a sufficiently smooth container, it can sometimes be “supercooled” so that it remains liquid for a time even when its temperature is lowered below its freezing point. (For this problem, you can use table 8.2 for heat capacities and may assume that they do not change with temperature.)
(a) A beaker with 500 g liquid water initially at 10 ºC is placed in a freezer at –15 ºC, where the liquid supercools until it is at the same temperature as the freezer. Calculate qH2O, and pay careful attention to its sign.
(b) The heat of fusion of ice at 0 ºC is 6.01 kJ/mol (Table 8.3), but this number changes slightly with temperature. Calculate the heat of fusion of ice at –15 ºC.
(c) The beaker of water from part (a) (now at –15 ºC) is taken out of the freezer and jostled, which triggers the water to freeze rapidly (so quickly that the beaker is effectively insulated; no heat is transferred to or from the beaker’s surroundings). As the ice forms, heat is given off and so the temperature of the water/ice mixture rises until it reaches 0 ºC, at which point no more ice forms. How much ice will form during this process?
