The equilibrium constant, Kc , for the following reaction is 5.10×10-6 at 548 K. NH4Cl(s) NH3(g) + HCl(g) If an equilibrium mixture of the three compounds in a 6.76 L container at 548 K contains 3.14 mol of NH4Cl(s) and 0.452 mol of NH3, the number of moles of HCl present is _________moles.
NH4Cl(s) ------------------------------> NH3(g) + HCl(g)
3.14 0.452 ? ------------------> at equilibrium
solids doesnot take part in equalibrium constant calculations
K = [NH3][HCl]
5.10 x 10^-6 = 0.452 x [HCl]
[HCl] = 1.13 x 10^-5
moles of HCl = 1.13 x 10^-5
