For the reaction below, K = 5.0×1033 at 298 K. [AuCl4]−(aq) + 3 V3+(aq) + 3 H2O(l) Au(s) + 4 Cl−(aq) + 3 VO2+(aq) + 6 H+(aq) In an experiment, 0.50 mol of KAuCl4 and 0.50 mol of V(ClO4)3 are dissolved in water at 298 K to make 1.0 L of solution. Calculate the equilibrium concentrations of all ionic species. Justify any approximations you make.

Solutions

Expert Solution

Ans. # Step 1: Determine the limiting reactant

Given, amount of [AuCl4]- = 0.5 mol

Moles of V3+ = Moles of V(ClO4)3 = 0.5 mol

Final volume made upto = 1.0 L

# Now,

            Initial [[AuCl4]-] = moles / Vol. in liters = 0.5 ml / 1.0 L = 0.5 M

            Initial [V3+] = 0.5 mol / 1.0 L = 0.5 M

            Initial [H2O] = 55.5 M ; assuming the solutes constitute negligible of final solution.

# Following stoichiometry of balanced reaction, molar ratios of reactants is-

            Moles of [AuCl4]- : V3+ : H2O = 1 : 3 : 1

# Experimental molar rations = Moles of [AuCl4]- : V3+ : H2O = 0.5 : 0.5 : 55.5 = 1 : 1 : 111

Since experimental moles of V3+ is less than its theoretical moles while keeping others equal or more than their respective molar rations, V3+ is the limiting reactant.

# Step 2: Formation of product follows the stoichiometry of limiting reactant.

# Since equilibrium constant is very high, in order of 1033, it’s assumed that the reaction goes to completion. That is, all the limiting reaction, V3+ is completely consumed.

I. Following stoichiometry of balanced reaction, 3 mol V3+ forms 4 mol Cl-.

So, [Cl-] formed at equilibrium = (4/3) x Initial [V3+] = (4/3) x 0.5 M = 0.667 M

II. Following stoichiometry of balanced reaction, 1 mol [AuCl4]- forms 4 mol Cl-.

So,

            [[AuCl4]-] remaining at equilibrium = Initial – consumed

                                                            = 0.5 M – (¼ x 0.667 M) = 0.333 M

III. Following stoichiometry of balanced reaction, 3 mol V3+ forms 3 mol VO2+.

So, [VO2+] at equilibrium = initial [V3+] = 0.5 M

IV. Following stoichiometry of balanced reaction, 3 mol V3+ forms 6 mol H+.

So, [H+] at equilibrium = 2 x initial [V3+] = 2 x 0.5 M = 1.0 M

V. Equilibrium [V3+] = 0 , all consumed (limiting reactant)
