Question

For the reaction,
`2Fe_((aq.))^(3+)+Hg_((aq.))^(2+)hArr2Fe_((aq.))^(2+)+2Hg_((aq.))^(2+)`
`K_(c)=9.14xx10^(-6)` at `25^(@)C`. If the initial concentration of the ions are `Fe^(3+)=0.5M`, `(Hg_(2))^(2+)=0.5M`, `Fe^(2+)=0.03M` and `Hg^(2+)=0.03M`. What will be the concentrations of ions at equilibrium?

Answer 1

`[Fe^(3+)]=0.4973 M`, `[Hg_(2)^(2+)]=0.4987 M` , `[Fe^(2+)]=0.0327 M`, `[Hg^(2+)]=0.0327 M` ,
