For the reaction n2 (g) + o2 (g) 2no (g), thekeq at 2130°c is 0.0025. assume [n2] = 0.95 m, [o2] = 0.65 m, and[no] = 0.050 m. calculate q and describe the direction thereaction will shift

The value of Q is 0.004 and reaction will shift towards the right.

Explanation:

Equilibrium constant is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each raised to the power their stoichiometric ratios. It is expressed as

K is the constant of a certain reaction when it is in equilibrium, while Q is the quotient of activities of products and reactants at any stage other than equilibrium of a reaction.

For the given chemical reaction:

The expression for is written as:

Given :   = 0.0025

Thus as , the reaction will shift towards the right i.e. towards the product side.
