12.100 A reaction important in smog formation is O3(g)+NO(g)O2(g)+NO2(g)K=6.01034 (a) If the initial concentrations are [O3]=1.0106M,[NO]=1.0105M,[NO2]=2.5104M, and [O2]=8.2103M , is the system at equilibrium? If not, in which direction does the reaction proceed? (b) If the temperature is increased, as on a very warm day, will the concentrations of the products increase or decrease? (HINT: You may have to calculate the enthalpy change for the reaction to find out if it is exothermic or endothermic.)
Characterize a system at chemical equilibrium with respect to each of the following a. the rates of the forward and reverse reactions b. the overall composition of the reaction mixture For a general reaction3A(g)+B(g)2C(g), if one starts an experiment with only reactants present, show what the plot of concentrations of A, B, and C versus time would look like. Also sketch the plot illustrating the rate of the forward reaction and rate of the reverse reaction versus time.

Why are there no changes specified for Ni in Exercise 13.61, part (f)? What property of Ni does change?
Because carbonic acid undergoes a second ionization, the student in Exercise 12.39 is concerned that the hydrogen ion concentration she calculated is not correct. She looks up the equilibrium constant for the reaction HCO,-(aq) «=* H+(aq) + COf'(aq) Upon finding that the equilibrium constant for this reaction is 4.8 X 10“H, she decides that her answer in Exercise 12.39 is correct. Explain her reasoning. A student is simulating the carbonic acid—hydrogen carbonate equilibrium in a lake: H,CO,(aq) 5=6 H+(aq) + HCO,'(aq) K = 4.4 X 10'7She starts with 0.1000 A1 carbonic acid. W hat are the concentrations of all species at equilibrium?
When writing a chemical equation for a reaction that comes to equilibrium. how do we indicate symbolically that the reaction is reversible?
