Grade 10 Science Worksheet - Challenge Me

NameDate

Circle the best answer, or write your answer on the line.

  1. In N₂ + 3 H₂ ⇌ 2 NH₃, a sealed vessel starts with 3 mol of H₂, and 0.4 mol of N₂ reacts before equilibrium. How many moles of H₂ remain, Ari?

  2. In N₂ + 3 H₂ ⇌ 2 NH₃, a sealed vessel starts with 6 mol of H₂, and 1.2 mol of N₂ reacts before equilibrium. How many moles of H₂ remain, Bo?

  3. A sealed jar holds some water. Once it reaches equilibrium, what stays constant, Jun?

    • The amount of water vapor
    • Nothing: it keeps drying out
    • The jar keeps filling with vapor
  4. Why doesn't water in an open pot on a stove reach equilibrium with its vapor, Luz?

    • Vapor escapes
    • The pot is too small
    • Water can't evaporate
  5. Milo says reactants and products have equal amounts at equilibrium. Agree or disagree?

    • Disagree: amounts are steady, not equal
    • Agree: balance means the amounts match
    • Agree: the reactions stop halfway
  6. Noah says the table never reached equilibrium because 0.050 isn't equal to 0.100. Agree or disagree?

    • Agree: the flask was open
    • Disagree: the amounts stopped changing
    • Agree: equilibrium needs matching amounts
  7. Pia says both reactions stop once equilibrium is reached. Agree or disagree?

    • Agree: the rates both fall to zero
    • Disagree: they run at equal rates
    • Agree: the particles stop moving
  8. In N₂ + 3 H₂ ⇌ 2 NH₃, 0.40 mol of N₂ reacts. How much NH₃ forms, Ren?

    • 1.20 mol
    • 0.80 mol
    • 0.40 mol
  9. How can data show that a system has reached equilibrium, Tala?

    • The amounts stop changing
    • One amount reaches zero
    • The amounts become equal
  10. Can a system at equilibrium hold mostly products, Zee?

    • No: it must be half and half
    • Yes: amounts can be very different
    • No: it must be mostly reactant

About this worksheet

Reversible reactions and dynamic equilibrium. Every version has 10 questions, and the answer key prints on the second page.

What your child will learn

  • I can say a reversible reaction (⇌) runs both ways and reaches equilibrium when the two rates are equal.
  • I can say amounts at equilibrium are constant, not equal, and the reactions keep running.
  • I can read equilibrium from a rate graph or an amounts table.
  • I can use coefficients to find how much forms or is left.

Standard: HS-PS1-6

Words to know

reversible reaction: A reaction that runs forward and backward

equilibrium: The state where forward and reverse rates are equal

dynamic: Still moving: both reactions continue

closed system: One sealed so nothing escapes

constant: Not changing over time

Common mistakes

Your child made one NO₂ per N₂O₄. The 2 in front of NO₂ means each N₂O₄ that splits makes two.

Your child took away the product amount instead of the reactant used. Use the equation's coefficients to turn one into the other.

Your child thought equilibrium means equal amounts. It means equal rates, so amounts stop changing but can be very different.

Questions parents ask

What is the most common mistake with reversible reactions and dynamic equilibrium?

Your child made one NO₂ per N₂O₄. The 2 in front of NO₂ means each N₂O₄ that splits makes two.
