Question
### Ammonia as a Clean Fuel

Ammonia has been studied as an alternative "clean" fuel for internal combustion engines, since its reaction with oxygen produces only nitrogen and water vapor. The following reaction takes place (at a certain temperature) as follows:

\[ 4 \text{NH}_3(g) + 3\text{O}_2(g) \rightleftharpoons 2 \text{N}_2(g) + 6 \text{H}_2\text{O}(g) \]

#### 2.1 Reaction Analysis
**Identify which reactant is oxidized and which is reduced:**

| NH₃ | O₂ |
|-----|-----|

#### 2.2 Equilibrium Calculation
An industrial chemist studying this reaction fills a 500 mL flask with 1.3 atm of ammonia gas and 1.2 atm of oxygen gas. The partial pressure of nitrogen gas at equilibrium is measured at 0.33 atm. **Calculate the pressure equilibrium constant, Kₚ, for this reaction.** Round your answer to 2 significant digits.

**Reaction Table:**

**\[ 4 \text{NH}_3(g) + 3\text{O}_2(g) \rightleftharpoons 2 \text{N}_2(g) + 6 \text{H}_2\text{O}(g) \]**

| **Initial Pressure** |                  |               |               |                       |
| **Change**           |                  |               |               |                       |
| **Expression**       |                  |               |               |                       |
