Ch.15 - Chemical Equilibrium
Chapter 15, Problem 145
Heavy water, symbolized D2O 1D = 2H2 finds use as a neutron moderator in nuclear reactors. In a mixture with ordinary water, exchange of isotopes occurs according to the following equation: H2O + D2O ∆ 2 HDO Kc = 3.86 at 298 K When 1.00 mol of H2O is combined with 1.00 mol of D2O, what are the equilibrium amounts of H2O, D2O, and HDO (in moles) at 298 K? Assume the density of the mixture is constant at 1.05 g>cm3.
