**Equilibrium Concentrations Calculation for NO₂**

**Chemical Reaction:**

\[ \text{N}_2\text{O}_4\text{ (g)} \rightleftharpoons 2\text{NO}_2\text{ (g)} \]

**Equilibrium Constant:**

\[ K = 6.14 \times 10^{-3} \text{ at } 298 \text{ K} \]

**Initial Conditions:**

A sealed 2.0 L container initially holds:
- 5.0 moles of \(\text{N}_2\text{O}_4\)
- 0.050 moles of \(\text{NO}_2\)

**Problem Statement:**

Determine the concentrations at equilibrium. What is the concentration of \(\text{NO}_2\) at equilibrium?

\[ [\text{NO}_2] = ? \text{ M} \]

**Diagram:**

An interactive element is present at the bottom of the image for inputting the equilibrium concentration of \(\text{NO}_2\) in molarity (M). It includes a text box labeled `[NO₂], M` and a blue 'Enter' button to submit the value. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To find the equilibrium concentrations, the following steps are usually performed:

1. **Initial Concentrations:**
   - \(\text{N}_2\text{O}_4\): \(\frac{5.0 \text{ moles}}{2.0 \text{ L}} = 2.5 \text{ M}\)
   - \(\text{NO}_2\): \(\frac{0.050 \text{ moles}}{2.0 \text{ L}} = 0.025 \text{ M}\)

2. **Set up the ICE Table (Initial, Change, Equilibrium):**

   |               | \( \text{N}_2\text{O}_4 \)   | \(\text{NO}_2\)   |
   |---------------|--------------------|-------------------|
   | Initial (M)   | 2.5                | 0.025             |
   | Change (M)    | - x                | + 2x              |
   | Equilibrium (M)| 2.5 - x            | 0.025 + 2x        |
