Question 26 suppose a flask is filled with of and of . the following reaction becomes possible: the equilibrium constant for this reaction is at the temperature of the flask. calculate the equilibrium molarity of . round your answer to two decimal places.

0.36 M

Explanation:

There is some info missing. I think this is the complete question.

Suppose a 250 mL flask is filled with 0.30 mol of N₂ and 0.70 mol of NO. The following reaction becomes possible:

N₂(g) +O₂(g) ⇄ 2 NO(g)

The equilibrium constant K for this reaction is 7.70 at the temperature of the flask.  Calculate the equilibrium molarity of O₂. Round your answer to two decimal places.

Initially, there is no O₂, so the reaction can only proceed to the left to attain equilibrium. The initial concentrations of the other substances are:

[N₂] = 0.30 mol / 0.250 L = 1.2 M

[NO] = 0.70 mol / 0.250 L = 2.8 M

We can find the concentrations at equilibrium using an ICE Chart. We recognize 3 stages (Initial, Change, and Equilibrium) and complete each row with the concentration or change in the concentration.

    N₂(g) +O₂(g) ⇄ 2 NO(g)

I    1.2        0              2.8

C  +x         +x            -2x

E  1.2+x      x           2.8 - 2x

The equilibrium constant (K) is:

Solving for x, the positive one is x = 0.3601 M

[O₂] = 0.3601 M ≈ 0.36 M
