Question

1)Consider the following reaction:

                               2 HI (g) <=> H? (g) + I? (g)

When 4.00 moles of HI were put on a container of 5.00 L at 458 degrees, we found that the mix in equilibrium contained 0.442 moles of I?. Determine the value of Kc.

2)The constant of equilibrium for the following reaction is 1.0E-5 at 1500 K.

                               N? (g) + O? (g) <=> 2NO (g)

If 0.750M of N? y 0.750M of O? are put in the same container and are permitted to reach equilibrium at 1500K, what are the concentrations in equilibrium of all the species?

Explanation / Answer

1.

2 HI (g) <=> H? (g) + I? (g)

Initial [HI] = moles / volume = 4.00 / 5.00 = 0.800 M

At equilibrium, [H2] = [I2] = 0.442 / 5.00 = 0.0884 M

At equilibrium, [HI] = [ 4.00 - ( 2 * 0.442 ) ] / 5.00 = 0.623 M

Therefore,

K = [H2][I2] / [HI]2

K = (0.0884 * 0.0884) / (0.623)2

K = 0.0201

K = 2.01 * 10-2
