6. What is the equilibrium constant for the following reaction?
C+02 = CO2

Given

Reaction

C+02 = CO2

Required

The equilibrium constant

Solution

The equilibrium constant is the ratio of concentration or pressure between the product and the reactant with each reaction coefficient raised  

The equilibrium constant is based on the concentration (Kc) in a reaction  

pA + qB -----> mC + nD  

So for the reaction :

C+O₂ ⇔ CO₂

the correct answer is b. a strong acid completely dissociates to its ions when dissolved in water. completely dissociates to and ions. a is incorrect because does not fully ionize to and ions and some remain as the compound . c and d are incorrect because, and do not fall into the category of bronsted lowry acids. a bronsted lowry acid is a proton donor and since both molecules do not have a proton to donate they are not bronsted lowry acids. likewise,   if we use the lewis acid definition, they cannot be acids. a lewis acid is an electron pair acceptor. both and have a complete octet so can not accept any electrons which disqualifies them as acids.
