For the iron thiocyanate system, what is the value of the equilibrium constant, Kc, if the following are the concentrations of all species present. Provide your answer to three digits after the decimal.

FeSCN2+ 0.501
Fe3+ 0.494
SCN- 0.639

Answer:

Kc = 0.630

Explanation:

The equilibrium of the thiocyanate system occurs as follows:

FeSCN²⁺(aq) ⇄ Fe³⁺(aq) + SCN⁻(aq)

And equilibrium constant, kc, is:

Kc = [SCN⁻] [Fe³⁺] / [FeSCN²⁺]

Replacing with the gven concentrations:

Kc = 0.639M*0.494M / 0.501M

Kc = 0.630
