Consider the reaction:
H2O(g) + CO(g) = H2(g) + CO2(g)
Which of the following statements are true and which are false.
When Q > K the system will spontaneously shift to the left.
1 mol of H2O(g) and 1 mol of CO(g) are placed in a vessel and 1 mol of H2(g) and 1 mol of CO2(g) are placed in another of equal volume. At equilibrium, at 350°C, the amounts of CO(g) in the two vessels are equilvalent.
At equilibrium, individual molecules may be subject to rapid chemical transformations.
At equilibrium, the overall composition of the reaction mixture is not changing.
Amounts of all reactants and products corresponding to an exact equilibrium composition for this reaction are sealed in a vessel. The CO placed in the vessel is labelled with 14C. After an indefinite period of time 14C may be found in both CO and CO2 molecules.
The equilibrium constant is independent of the initial concentrations.
