[tex]\mathrm{Fe} 3+(\mathrm{ag})+\mathrm{SCN}-(\mathrm{aq})[/tex] <----> [tex]\mathrm{FeSCN} 2+(\mathrm{aq})[/tex]
Explanation:
Use the concentration and volume values they've given you to find the moles of Fe(NO3)3 and KSCN that were initially present (before they were mixed)
moles = concentration in M x volume in L
n(Fe(NO3)3) = [tex]\left(2.00 \times 10^{\wedge}-3\right) \times(5 / 1000)=0.00001 \mathrm{mol}[/tex] [tex]=10^{\wedge}-5 \text { mol }[/tex]
n(KSCN) = [tex]\left(2.00 \times 10^{\wedge}-3\right) \times(4 / 1000)=0.000008 \mathrm{mol}[/tex] [tex]=8 \times 10^{\wedge}-6 \text { mol }[/tex]
n(Fe(NO3)3) = n(Fe3+) = [tex]10^{\wedge}-5 \text { mol }[/tex]
[tex]n(KSCN) = n(SCN-) =[/tex] [tex]8 \times 10^{\wedge}-6 \text { mol }[/tex]
so n(Fe3+) initially present = [tex]10^{\wedge}-5 \text { mol }[/tex]
n(SCN-) initially present = [tex]8 \times 10^{\wedge}-6 \text { mol }[/tex]
