6. Place the test tube in a hot water bath. Record color.
___________
4. Analyze Data:
A. The equation for the reversible reaction in this experiment is:
+ heat
1Co(H2O)62+ (aq) +
Hexahydrate Co2+ ion (pink)
4Cl- (aq)
chloride ion
1CoCl42-(aq) + 6H2O (l)
Tetrachlorocobaltate ion (blue)
Chemical Equilibrium
III. Le Châtelier’s Principle
4. Analyze Data:
A. Use the equation to explain the colors of the solution in steps 1,
2, and 3
In Step 1, the solution is initially a pink color, because the reaction
arrives at an equilibrium in which the concentration of the pink-colored
1Co(H2O)62+(aq) is at a higher concentration than the blue-colored
1CoCl42-(aq). In Step 2, the addition of HCl increases the concentration of
Cl-, shifting the equilibrium to the right to favor the formation of the blue
1CoCl42-(aq), so the solution turns blue. In Step 3, the increase in
concentration of water shifts the equilibrium left, re-establishing a new
equilbrium where the concentration of 1CoCl42-(aq) is higher than it was
orginally, so the purple color shows more of a balance of pink and blue.
Chemical Equilibrium
III. Le Châtelier’s Principle
4. Analyze Data:
B. Explain how the equilibrium shifts when heat energy is added
or removed.
In Step 5, since heat acts like a product in the exothermic reverse
reaction, removing heat by lowering the temperature causes the
equilibrium to shift to the left, increasing the rate of the reverse reaction
and causing the solution to turn pink. In Step 6, since heat acts like a
reactant in the endothermic forward reaction, adding heat by increasing
the temperature causes the equilibrium to shift to the right, increasing the
rate of the forward reaction and causing the solution to turn blue.

4. Analyze Data:
A. Write the complete thermochemical equation for the reaction
that occurred in Step 2.
AgNO3 (aq) + NaCl (aq) → AgCl (s) + NaNO3 (aq)
B. Write the net ionic equation for the reaction in Step 2.
Ag+ (aq) + Cl- (aq)
AgCl (s)
C. Write the equation for the solubility equilibrium that was
established in test wells A1 and A2 during Step 2.
1AgCl (s)
1Ag+ (aq) + 1Cl- (aq)
D. Write the solubility constant expression for the equilibrium
established in test wells A1 and A2 during Step 2.
Ksp = [Ag+]1 [Cl-]1 = 1.8 x 10-10
E. Write the equation for the solubility equilibrium that was
established in test well A2 during Step 4.

Chemical Equilibrium
V. Solubility Equilibria
4. Analyze Data:
F. Match the chemical formula of each precipitate with its color.
AgCl (s) is white; Ag2S (s) is black
G. Compare the two Ksp values for the two precipitates. Infer
which is the more soluble.
Ksp for AgCl (s) = 1.8 x 10-10
Ksp for Ag2S (s) = 8 x 10-48; AgCl is more soluble
H. Use Le Châtelier’s Principle to explain how the addition of
Na2S in Step 4 affected the equilibrium in test well A2.
1AgCl (s)
1Ag+ (aq) + 1Cl- (aq)
The addition of S2- to the equilibrium removes Ag+ from the equilibrium,
causing the system to shift to the right in favor of the formation of Ag+,
so at the same time the black precipitate Ag2S is forming, the white AgCl
is dissolving to relieve the stress on the equilibrium.
