Question
### Understanding Chemical Equilibrium

At a certain temperature, the equilibrium constant \( K \) for the following reaction is 0.0041:

\[ \text{NO}_3(g) + \text{NO}(g) \rightleftharpoons 2\text{NO}_2(g) \]

Use this information to complete the following table.

#### Question 1
**Suppose a 18. L reaction vessel is filled with 0.61 mol of NO\(_2\). What can you say about the composition of the mixture in the vessel at equilibrium?**

- There will be very little NO\(_3\) and NO. (Selected)
- There will be very little NO\(_2\).
- Neither of the above is true.

#### Question 2
**What is the equilibrium constant for the following reaction? Round your answer to 2 significant digits.**

\[ 2\text{NO}_2(g) \rightleftharpoons \text{NO}_3(g) + \text{NO}(g) \]

\( K = \) [ ]

#### Question 3
**What is the equilibrium constant for the following reaction? Round your answer to 2 significant digits.**

\[ 3\text{NO}_3(g) + 3\text{NO}(g) \rightleftharpoons 6\text{NO}_2(g) \]

\( K = \) [ ]

### Explanation of the Graphs and Equilibrium Table

- The first section presents a scenario where the reaction occurs in an 18-liter vessel with an initial amount of 0.61 mol of NO\(_2\). The equilibrium state is described, and the student is asked about the composition of this mixture.
- The second part of the table requires the calculation of equilibrium constants for two given reactions derived from the original reaction, emphasizing the importance of rounding to two significant digits.

### Key Points

- **Equilibrium Constant (K):** A measure of the ratio of the concentrations of the products to the reactants at equilibrium.
- **Significant Digits:** Ensure calculations are accurate and rounded appropriately.
- **Reaction Direction:** Understanding how the equilibrium position changes with different reaction directions.
