What is common ion effect?

1 Answer

Answer :

The decrease in ionization of a weak electrolyte by adding another strong electrolyte having common ion.e.g ionization of NaCl is decreased by passing HCl through NaCl solution.

Description : How value of Kc can help to predict the extent to which a chemical reaction can take place?

Last Answer : The extent of reaction depends upon the magnitude of Kc. i.e. (i) Very small value of Kc: when Kc is very small the forward reaction will not occur to an appreciable extent ... neither very large nor very small, the equilibrium mixture contains appreciable amounts of both reactant and products.

Description : How Kc can be applied to calculate direction of chemical reaction?

Last Answer : (i) If < Kc Then the reaction will proceed in the forward direction until the equilibrium is established. (ii) If > Kc Then the reaction will proceed in the backward direction until the equilibrium is established. If = kc Then the reaction is already in equilibrium.
