Type I problems: These are problems for which you are given the conditions at equilibrium. You just plug-and-chug.
Type II problems: These are problems for which you are given the
conditions leading up to equilibrium. In these cases, you must
assume x moles, M, or atm or reaction occurs.
It is suggested that you set up a table with the concentrations of all
species before equilibrium and after equilibrium. You need
to use algebra. See the lab manual for more details
and examples.
