Calculate the equilibrium concentrations of [CoCl4]-2 at each temperature using Beer's Law, A = ebc. Use a value of 1 cm for the path length. The wavelength corresponds to the absorbance by [CoCl4]-2 with a molar absorptivity constant, e, of 577.2 M-1 cm-1. Temperature (°C) Solution Color Wavelength Absorbance 10.0 Dark Pink 670 0.339 20.0 Blue/Purple 670 1.061 32.0 Blue/Purple 670 1.552 42.0 Dark Blue 670 1.613 Temperature (°C) [CoCl4]-2 (M) 10.0 20.0 32.0 42.0

Consider the reaction and the associated equilibrium constant: MissED THIS? Read Section 16.8 . Watch KCV 16.8 , WE 16.9 $$ a M(s) \Longrightarrow b B(g) \quad K_{c}-4.0 $$ Find the equilibrium concentrations of A and $\mathrm{B}$ for each value of $a$ and $b$, Assume that the initial concentration of A in each case is $1.0 \mathrm{M}$ and that no $\mathrm{B}$ is present at the beginning of the reaction. a. $a-1 ; b-1$ b. $a-2 ; b-2 \quad$ c. $a-1 ; b-2$
