<b>Here are the basic procedures for solving equilibrium problems:</b> (from Zumdahl textbook) <li>Write the balanced equation for the reaction. <li>Write the equilibrium expression using the law of mass action. <li>List the initial concentrations. <li>Calculate "Q," and determine the direction of the shift to equilibrium. <li>Define the change needed to reach equilibrium, and define the equilibrium concentrations by applying the change to the initial concentrations. <li>Substitute the equilibrium concentrations ionto the equilibrium expression, and solve for the unknown. <li>Check your calculated equilibrium concentrations by making sure they give the correct value of "K." <b>Examples:
