The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the equilibrium condition of the reaction given the changes in the concentration of reactants. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify Initial Concentrations**: - Let the initial concentration of A be \( x \). - The initial concentration of B is doubled, so it will be \( 2x \). - The initial concentrations of C and D are both \( 0 \) since no products are formed initially. 2. **Establish Equilibrium Conditions**: - At equilibrium, we know that 50% of each reactant is converted into products. Therefore, the amount of A converted will be \( 0.5x \) and the amount of B converted will also be \( 0.5(2x) = x \). 3. **Write the Equilibrium Concentrations**: - At equilibrium: - Concentration of A: \( x - 0.5x = 0.5x \) - Concentration of B: \( 2x - x = x \) - Concentration of C: \( 0 + 0.5x = 0.5x \) - Concentration of D: \( 0 + 0.5x = 0.5x \) 4. **Write the Expression for the Equilibrium Constant (K)**: - The expression for the equilibrium constant \( K \) is given by: \[ K = \frac{[C][D]}{[A][B]} = \frac{(0.5x)(0.5x)}{(0.5x)(x)} \] - Simplifying this gives: \[ K = \frac{0.25x^2}{0.5x^2} = \frac{0.25}{0.5} = 0.5 \] 5. **Determine the New Equilibrium with Doubled B**: - If the amount of B is doubled again, the initial concentration of B becomes \( 4x \). - The new equilibrium concentrations will be: - Concentration of A: \( 0.5x \) - Concentration of B: \( 4x - y \) (where \( y \) is the amount of B converted) - Concentration of C: \( 0.5x + y \) - Concentration of D: \( 0.5x + y \) 6. **Set Up the New Equilibrium Expression**: - The new equilibrium constant \( K \) remains the same (since temperature is constant): \[ K = \frac{(0.5x + y)(0.5x + y)}{(0.5x)(4x - y)} \] - Setting this equal to \( 0.5 \) and solving for \( y \) will give us the amount of B converted. 7. **Calculate the Percentage of B Converted**: - The percentage of B converted is given by: \[ \text{Percentage of B converted} = \frac{y}{\text{Initial concentration of B}} \times 100 = \frac{y}{4x} \times 100 \] 8. **Final Calculation**: - After solving the equations, we find that the amount of B converted is \( x \), thus: \[ \text{Percentage of B converted} = \frac{x}{4x} \times 100 = 25\% \] ### Final Answer: The percentage of B converted into products when the amount of B is doubled is **25%**.

To solve the problem, we need to analyze the equilibrium condition of the reaction given the changes in the concentration of reactants. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify Initial Concentrations**: - Let the initial concentration of A be \( x \). - The initial concentration of B is doubled, so it will be \( 2x \). - The initial concentrations of C and D are both \( 0 \) since no products are formed initially. ...
