In the gaseous form, SO3 is a significant air pollutant, being the primary agent in acid rain. SO3 can further react with nitrogen monoxide to create NO2 which is also an air pollutant, as seen in the reaction below: SO3 (g) + NO (g) – NO2 (g) + SO2 (g) At 298K, the concentrations of the four gasses were found to be: [NO] = 0.18 mol/L [SO3] = 0.52 mol/L [SO2] = 1.34 mol/L [NO2]= 2.56 mol/L

Apply Le Chatelier's principle and decide how (by altering temperature, pressure, and concentration) you could increase the amount of the products in the following reactions: 1) 2CO2 (g) ----> 2CO (g) + O2 (g) ΔH0=566 kJ 2) 2SO2 (g) + O2 (g) ----> 2SO3 (g) Please explain and show all three alterations for each reaction.
The compound IrH;(CO)(P(C,H5);)2 exists in two forms: the meridional (“mer") and facial (“fac"). At 25°C in a nonaqueous solvent, the reaction mer → fac has a rate constant of 2.33 s', and the reaction fac → mer has a rate constant of 2.10 s-1. What is the equilibrium constant of the mer-to-fac reaction at 25°C?

Gas Initial Concentration (M) H2 0.030 I2 0.015 HI ? Samples of three gases, H2(g) , I2(g) , and HI(g) , were combined in a rigid vessel. The initial concentrations of H2(g) and I2(g) are given in the table above. (a) The original value of the reaction quotient, Qc , for the reaction of H2(g) and I2(g) to form HI(g) (before any reactions take place and before equilibrium is established), was 5.56 . On the following graph, plot the points representing the initial concentrations of all three gases. Label each point with the formula of the gas. Equilibrium was established at a certain temperature according to the following chemical equation.

Consider the quilibrium reaction between X and Y, as shown below: X=Y AG The reaction is started with 10 mmol of X; no Y is initially present. After 48 hours, analysis reveals the presence of 10 mmol of X and 0 mmol of Y. Which is the most likely explanation? = −1 - 45 kJ mol X and Y have reached equilibrium concentrations. An enzyme has shifted the equilibrium toward X. Formation of Y is kinetically slow; equilibrium has not been reached by 48 hours. Formation of Y is thermodynamically unfavorable. Two of the above explanations are reasonable.
