We are starting on equilibrium constant & the Le Chaleiter Principle. Can you please explain how to work these problems, so that I can better understand, and be able to answer the remainder of the questions going forward?

Fe³⁺ + SCN^- FeSCN²⁺

(colorless) (red)

Naming: iron(III) ion (Fe³⁺); thiocyanate anion (SCN^1-); ferrithiocyanate (FeSCN²⁺), a red complex cation.

Part 1: When Fe(NO₃)₃ was added to the system,

Write the equilibrium constant, K_c .
Which ion in the equilibrium system caused the "stress"?
Which way did the equilibrium shift?
What happened to the concentration of SCN^-?
What happened to the concentration of FeSCN²⁺?

Part 2: When NaSCN was added to the system,

Which ion in the equilibrium system caused the "stress"?
Which way did the equilibrium shift?
What happened to the concentration of Fe³⁺?
What happened to the concentration of FeSCN²⁺?

Part 3: When AgNO₃ was added to the system, it caused the precipitation of solid AgSCN.

Which ion in the equilibrium had its concentration changed by addition of AgNO₃?
Did the concentration of that ion increase or decrease?
When AgNO₃ was added, which way did the equilibrium shift?

What happen to the color of the solution?

Expert Solution

Note: left to right side shift of equilibrium = forward direction shift of equilibrium

right to left side shift of equilibrium = backward direction or reverse direction shift of equilibrium

Let me know if you have any queries regarding this.

1. Explain how a concentration dependant monomer-dimer equilibrium agrees with Le Châtelier’s principle. Hint, in order for a dimer to form two monomers must collide and dimers, once formed, do dissociate after a period of time.

what are the possibles errors we can make in the Le Chatelier's principle experiments??

Give 2 examples showing how competing equilibrium reactions affect one another. ( Le Chatlier's Principle)

Using Le Châtelier's principle, explain how the addition of aqueous ammonia dissolves silver chloride. If HNO3 is added after the AgCl has dissolved in the NH3solution, it causes AgCl to re-precipitate. Explain by selecting all true statements. 1.) AgCl is an insoluble solid. 2.) Ag+reacts with NH3 to form Ag(NH3)2+, which "adds" Ag+ to the AgCl equilibrium, causing more AgCl to dissolve. 3.) Ag+reacts with NH3 to form Ag(NH3)2+, which "removes" Ag+ from the AgCl equilibrium, causing more AgCl to...
