Question

In a large rxn vessel at a constant temperature, nitrogen dioxide and dinitrogen tetroxide are in a state of dynamic equilibrium, as represented by these BCEs: 

Equation 1:      2NO2(g) ⇄ N2O4(g)     K1

Equation 2:      N2O4(g) ⇄ 2NO2(g)     K2

The rxn eq constants are K1 and K2. Which of the following quantities can most easily be used to find the value of K2?

  1. The value of ΔH for the reaction
  2. The temperature of the system
  3. The volume of the system
  4. The value of K1
