NCERT TEXTBOOK QUESTIONS SOLVED

Question 1. A liquid is in equilibrium with its vapours in a sealed container at a fixed temperature. The volume of the container is suddenly increased, (i) What is the initial effect of the change on the vapour pressure? (ii) How do the rates of evaporation and condensation change initially? (iii) What happens when equilibrium is restored finally and what will be the final vapour pressure?
Answer:  (i) On increasing the volume of the container, the vapour pressure will initially decrease because the same amount of vapours are now distributed over a larger space.
(ii) On increasing the volume of the container, the rate of evaporation will increase initially because now more space is available. Since the amount of the vapours per unit volume decrease on increasing the volume, therefore, the rate of condensation will decrease initially.
(iii) Finally, equilibrium will be restored when the rates of the forward and backward processes become equal. However, the vapour pressure will remain unchanged because it depends upon the temperature and not upon the volume of the container.

Question 7. Explain why pure liquids and solids can be ignored while writing the value of equilibrium constants.
Answer:  This is because molar concentration of a pine solid or liquid is independent of the amount present.

When 0.087 mole of NO and 0.0437 mole of Br2 are mixed in a closed container at constant temperature, 0.0518 mole of NOBr is obtained at equilibrium. Determine the compositions of the equilibrium mixture.
Answer:  The balanced chemical equation for the reaction is:
According to the equation, 2 moles of NO (g) react with 1 mole of Br(g) to form 2 moles of NOBr (g). The composition of the equilibrium mixture can be calculated as follows:
No. of moles of NOBr (g) formed at equilibrium = 0.0518 mol (given)
No. of moles of NO (g) taking part in reaction = 0.0518 mol
No. of moles of NO (g) left at equilibrium = 0.087 – 0.0518 = 0.0352 mol
No. of moles of Br2 (g) taking part in reaction = 1/2 x 0.0518 = 0.0259 mol
No. of moles of Br2 (g) left at equilibrium = 0.0437 – 0.0259 = 0.0178 mol
The initial molar concentration and equilibrium molar concentration of different species may be represented as:
2NO (g) + Br2(g) ——————> 2NOBr(g)

Calculate the equilibrium constant for the reaction.
Answer: Number of moles of water originally present = 1 mol
Percentage of water reacted =40%
Number of moles of water reacted = 1 x 40/100 = 0.4 mol
Number of moles of water left = (1 – 0.4) = 0.6 mole According to the equation, 0.4 mole of water will react with 0.4 mole of carbon monoxide to form 0.4 mole of hydrogen and 0.4 mole of carbon dioxide.

ncert-solutions-for-class-11-chemistry-chapter-7-equilibrium-32
Since Qc is less than Kc this means that the equilibrium has not been reached. The reactants are still taking part in the reaction to form the products.
Question 18. A sample of pure PClwas introduced into an evacuated vessel at 473 K. After equilibrium was reached, the concentration of PCl was found to be 0.5 x 10-1 mol L-1. If Kc is 8.3 x 10-3 what are the concentrations of PCl and Cl at equilibrium?

Question 19. One of the reactions that takes place in producing steel from iron ore is the reduction of iron
(II) oxide by carbon monoxide to give iron metal and C02
FeO(s) + CO(g) ———>Fe(s) + C02(g) ; Kp = 0.265 atm at 1050 K
What are the equilibrium partial pressures of CO and C0at 1050 K if the initial pressures are: PCO = 1.4 atm and PCO2 = 0.80 atm?
Answer:
ncert-solutions-for-class-11-chemistry-chapter-7-equilibrium-34
Since Qp>Kp(0.265), this means that the reaction will move in the backward direction to attain the equilibrium. Therefore, partial pressure of C02 will decrease while that of CO will increase so that the equilibrium may be attained again. Let p atm be the decrease in the partial pressure of C02. Therefore, the partial pressure of CO will increase by the same magnitude i.e., p atm.

Question 24. Does the number of moles of reaction products increase, decrease or remain same when each of the following equilibria is subjected to a decrease in pressure bp increasing the volume?
ncert-solutions-for-class-11-chemistry-chapter-7-equilibrium-45
Answer: (i) Pressure will increase in the forward reaction and number of moles of products will increase.
(ii) Pressure will increase in backward reaction and number of moles of products will decrease.
(iii) The change in pressure will have no effect on the equilibrium constant and there will be no change in the number of moles.
Question 25. Which of the following reactions will get affected by increase in pressure ? Also mention whether the change will cause the reaction to go to the right or left direction.
ncert-solutions-for-class-11-chemistry-chapter-7-equilibrium-46
Answer:  Only those reactions will be affected by increasing the pressure in which the number of moles of the gaseous reactants and products are different (np ≠ nr) (gaseous). With the exception of the reaction (1); all the reamaining five reactions will get affected by increasing the pressure. In general,
  • The reaction will go to the left if np> nr.
  • The reaction will go to the right if nr > np .
    Keeping this in mind,
(i) Increase in pressure will not affect equilibrium because np = nr = 3.
(ii) Increase in pressure will favour backward reaction because np (2) > nr (1)
(iii) Increase in pressure will favour backward reaction because np (10) > nr (9)
(iv) Increase in pressure will favour forward reaction because np (1) < nr (2)
(v) Increase in pressure will favour backward reaction because np (2) > nr(1)
(vi) Increase in pressure will favour backward reaction because np (1) > nr (0).

ncert-solutions-for-class-11-chemistry-chapter-7-equilibrium-50
Write the expression for Kpfor the above reaction
How will the value of Kp and composition of equilibrium mixture be affected by:
(i) increasing the pressure, (ii) increasing the temperature, (iii) using a catalyst?
Answer: The expression for Kfor the reaction is:
ncert-solutions-for-class-11-chemistry-chapter-7-equilibrium-51
(i) By increasing the pressure, the number of moles per unit volume will increase. In order to decrease the same, the equilibrium gets shifted to the left or in the backward direction. As a result, more of reactants will be formed and the value of Kp will decrease.
(ii) If the temperature is increased, according to Le Chatelier’s principle, the forward reaction will be favoured as it is endothermic. Therefore, the equilibrium gets shifted to the right and the value of Kp will increase.
(iii) The addition of catalyst will not change the equilibrium since it influences both the forward and the backward reactions to the same extent. But it will be attained more quickly.
Question 28. What is the effect of:
(i) addition of H2 (ii) addition of CH3OH
(iii) removal of CO (iv) removal of CH3OH

Answer:
ncert-solutions-for-class-11-chemistry-chapter-7-equilibrium-54
ncert-solutions-for-class-11-chemistry-chapter-7-equilibrium-55
(c) (i) By adding more of PCl5, value of Kc will remain constant because there is no change in temperature.
(ii) By increasing the temperature, the forward reaction will.be favoured since it is endothermic in nature. Therefore, the value of equilibrium constant will increase.

ncert-solutions-for-class-11-chemistry-chapter-7-equilibrium-58

(a) Since the value of Kc is very small, this means that the molar concentration of the products is very small as compared to that of the reactants.
(b) Since the value of Kc is quite large, this means that the molar concentration of the products is very large as compared to that of the reactants.
(c) Since the value of Kc is 1.8, this means that both the products and reactants have appreciable concentration.

Question 1. For the equilibrium 2 NOCl(g)——-> 2NO(g) + Cl2(g) the value of the equilibrium constant Kc is 3.75 x 10-6 at 1069 K. Calculate the Kfor the reaction at this temperature?
Answer: We know that Kp = Kc(RT)∆n
For the above reaction, ∆n = (2 + 1) – 2 = 1 Kp = 3.75 x 10’6 (0.0831 x 1069)
Kp = 0.033.

Question 3. The value of Kc for the reaction 2A——>B + C is 2 x 10-3. At a given time, the composition of reaction mixture is [A] = [B] = [C] = 3 x 10-4 M. In which direction the reaction will proceed?
Answer: For the reaction the reaction quotient Qc is given by Qc = [B] [C]/[A]2 as [A] = [B] = [C] = 3 x 10-4 M Qc = (3 x 10-4) (3 x10-3)/(3 x 10) = 1
as Qc > Kc, so, the reaction will proceed in the reverse direction.
