Hello everyone in this problem. We're using le principle to determine the change in the amount of Zn C. L. When O. H minus is added to the solution to produce the complex ion here. So our chemical reaction then, since we're just basing it off of this equation here, So we're given that we have our Z. N. Two plus which is a chris dive reacts with H minus which is also Aquarius and it yields a complex iron C. N. O. H. 42 minus. And to bounce this reaction out we see that we have four um of these old age is so we can go ahead and put a coefficient of four on the left side. All right. And this complex sion is also Aquarius. Alright so when O. H. Which is a story material as you can see here, his attitude equation the amount of ZN two plus will decrease. So the reaction will have to shift to the left to produce this. Alright, let's go ahead and put this in writing. So according two left sharply A's principal when O. H. Is Adan the amount of our other agents, so ZN two plus will decrease. So the reaction I just simplify to our X shifts to the left. So basically what this means is that the amount of our complex ion. So that's or rather it's going to raise this or rather talking about the amount of Z. N. C. L. Two we'll go ahead and decrease. So this right here is going to be my final answer for this problem

Textbook Question
The reaction of fumarate with water to form L-malate is catalyzed by the enzyme fumarase; Kc = 3.3 at 37°C. When a reaction mixture with [fumarate] = 1.56 * 10-3 M and [l -malate] = 2.27 * 10-3 M comes to equilibrium in the presence of fumarase at 37 °C, what are the equilibrium concentrations of fumarate and L-malate? (Water can be omit- ted from the equilibrium equation because its concentration in dilute solutions is essentially the same as that in pure water.)
