Question

In a 1-L vessel, at 700°C, a mixture of C, CO2, and CO gases are in equilibrium (see reaction below) in a cylinder fitted with
a moveable piston. The moles of the mixture at equilibrium are: C = 0.400 mol, CO = 0.200 mol, and CO2 = 10.0 mol.

     C(s) + CO2 (g)   ↔  CO (g)    

i) Calculate Kp for this reaction.
   Kp = 

ii) If the volume of the mixture is halved by pushing down on the piston at constant temperature, what direction will the reaction
shift as a result of the stress.   L = Left, R = Right, NC = No change

   Rxn shifts     Type, L, R or NC

iii)  Calculate Q for this condition.  Use correct number of significant figures, do not include units.  Use the format 6.02e-6.

     Q = 

iv) Calculate the concentrations of the gases when equilibrium is re-establish. 
Use the correct number of significant figures, do not include units.  Use the format 6.02e-6.

   |C| = 
   |CO2| = 
   |CO| =
