Question

A student ran the following reaction in the laboratory at 255 K:

2NO(g) + Br2(g)     2NOBr(g)

When she introduced 0.218 moles of NO(g) and 0.160 moles of Br2(g) into a 1.00 liter container, she found the equilibrium concentration of NOBr(g) to be 0.183 M.

Calculate the equilibrium constant, Kc, she obtained for this reaction.

Kc =

Expert Solution
Step 1

From the given values,

 

  2NO Br2 2NOBr
I 0.218 0.160 0
C -2x -x +2x
E 0.218-2x 0.160-x 2x

According to question, 

2x = 0.183 

x = 0.0915 M
