What Is the Equilibrium Constant for the Following Reaction HCO2-(aq) + HCN(aq)
and Does the Reaction Favor the Formation
Multiple Choice
What is the equilibrium constant for the following reaction,
HCO2H(aq) + CN-(aq) HCO2-(aq) + HCN(aq)
And does the reaction favor the formation of reactants or products? The acid dissociation constant, Ka, for HCO2H is 1.8 × 10-4 and the acid dissociation constant for HCN is 4.0 × 10-10.
A) K = 1.00. The reaction favors neither the formation of reactants nor products.
B) K = 2.2 × 10-6. The reaction favors the formation of products.
C) K = 2.2 × 10-6. The reaction favors the formation of reactants.
D) K = 4.5 × 105. The reaction favors the formation of products.
E) K = 4.5 × 105. The reaction favors the formation of reactants.
