Dinitrogentetraoxide partially decomposes into nitrogen dioxide. A 1.00-L flask is charged with 0.0400 mol of N2O4. At equilibrium at 373 K, 0.0055 mol of N2O4 remains. Keq for this reaction is ________.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Keq=0.866

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the undergone chemical reaction is:

[tex]N_2O_4<->2NO_2[/tex]

In such a way, since 0.0055 mol of N₂O₄ remains in the flask, one infers that the reacted amount ([tex]x[/tex]) was:

[tex]x=0.04mol-0.0055mol=0.0345mol[/tex]

In addition, the produced amount of NO₂ is:

[tex]2*0.0345mol=0.069mol[/tex]

Finally, considering the flask's volume, the equilibrium constant is then computed as follows:

[tex]Keq=\frac{(2*0.0345M)^2}{0.0055M}=0.866[/tex]

Best regards.
