Sample Problem 17.2
PLAN:
Writing the reaction quotient for an overall reaction
(a) Show that Qc for the overall reaction sequence is the same as the product of the Qcs of the individual reactions.
(b) Calculate Kc for the overall reaction.
Sum the equations to give the overall reaction and write its Qc. Write the Qcs for the individual reactions and multiply the expressions.
The Kcs for the individual reactions are multiplied to give the equilibrium constants for the overall reaction.
