Question
Calculate the equilibrium concentrations of N2O4 and NO2 at 25 C if the initial concentrations are [N2O4]= 0.0230 M and [NO2]= 0.0310 M.
The equilibrium constant Kc for the reaction N2O4(g)2NO2(g) is 4.64×103 at 25 C.
Explanation / Answer
N2O4(g) 2NO2(g)
I 0.023 0.031
C +x -2x
E 0.023+x 0.031-2x
kc = [NO2]^2/[N2O4]
4.64*10^-3 = (0.031-2x)^2/(0.023+x)
4.64*10^-3 *(0.023+x) = (0.031-2x)^2
x = 0.00937
[N2O4] = 0.023+x
= 0.023+0.00937 = 0.0324M
[NO2] = 0.031-2x
= 0.031-2*0.00937 = 0.0122M
check out Kc
Kc = [NO2]^2/[N2O4]
= (0.0122)^2/0.0324 = 0.00464
