Spectrophotometric Determination of an Equilibrium Constant Introduction: In this experiment‚ you will study the reaction between aqueous iron (III) nitrate‚ Fe(NO3)3‚ and potassium thiocyanate‚ KSCN. They react to produce the blood-red complex [Fe(SCN)]2+. Fe3+ + SCN- ( [Fe(SCN)]2+ The equilibrium constant expression may be expressed as: K = [pic] You will prepare a series of standard solutions that contain known concentrations of [Fe(SCN)]2+ and will determine

Introduction A gas is the state of matter that is characterized by having neither a fixed shape nor a fixed volume. Gases exert pressure‚ are compressible‚ have low densities and diffuse rapidly when mixed with other gases. On a microscopic level‚ the molecules (or atoms) in a gas are separated by large distances and are in constant‚ random motion. When dealing with gases‚ the Ideal Gas Law equation is the most famous equation used to relate all the factors in dealing and solving the problem
