Question

A chemical engineer is studying the following reaction: HClg)+02(9) 2H20rg)+2C12(9) At the temperature the engineer picks, the equilibrium constant K, for this reaction is 0.027. The engineer charges (fills) four reaction vessels with hydrogen chloride and oxygen, and lets the reaction begin. He then measures the composition of the mixture inside each vessel from time to time. His first set of measurements are shown in the table below Predict the changes in the compositions the engineer should expect next time he measures the compositions reaction compound expected change in pressure 6 92 atm ↑ increase ↓ decrease 0 (no change) 4.28 am | O increase () decrease O (no change) H2O | 2.29 atm |0 increase O- decrease e(no change) 289 atm 1 increase decrease (no change) 5,62 atm 1 increase 1 decrease (n change) 395 atm1 increase 1 decrease (no change) H2O | 294 am |.↑increase O↓decrease Odno change) 854 atm1 increase I decrease (no change) 626 atm1 increase I decrease (no change) 4 40 atm | @ ↑ increase ↓ decrease ● (no change) H,O 3.36 atm1 increase 1 decrease (no change) 405 am | 0 ↑ increase ↓ decrease (no change) HCl O2 HCI 02 Cl, HCl 02
