A sample of NO decomposes according to the following equation:

2 NO(g)  1 N2(g) + 1 O2(g)

An equilibrium mixture in a 3-L vessel at 4497 oC, contains 0.000759 g of NO, 0.00202 g of N2, and 0.00138 g of O2.

(a) Calculate KP for this reaction at this temperature.

(b) What is the total pressure exerted by the equilibrium mixture of gases?
