Nitrogen dioxide is one of the many oxides of nitrogen (often collectively called "NOx") that are of interest to atmospheric chemistry. It can react with itself to form another form of NOx, dinitrogen tetroxide. A chemical engineer studying this reaction fills a 50 L tank with 6.5 mol of nitrogen dioxide gas. When the mixture has come to equilibrium he determines that it contains 4.8 mol of nitrogen dioxide gas. The engineer then adds another 3.3 mol of nitrogen dioxide, and allows the mixture to come to equilibrium again. Calculate the moles of dinitrogen tetroxide after equilibrium is reached the second time. Round your answer to 2 significant digits. mol X Ś ?

Question

Transcribed Image Text:Nitrogen dioxide is one of the many oxides of nitrogen (often collectively called "NOx") that are of interest to atmospheric chemistry. It can react with itself to
form another form of NOx, dinitrogen tetroxide.
A chemical engineer studying this reaction fills a 50 L tank with 6.5 mol of nitrogen dioxide gas. When the mixture has come to equilibrium he determines that
it contains 4.8 mol of nitrogen dioxide gas.
The engineer then adds another 3.3 mol of nitrogen dioxide, and allows the mixture to come to equilibrium again. Calculate the moles of dinitrogen tetroxide
after equilibrium is reached the second time. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.

Follow-up Question
this one is asking for mol

Transcribed Image Text:While ethanol (CH3CH₂OH) is produced naturally by fermentation, e.g. in beer- and wine-making, industrially it is synthesized by reacting ethylene
(CH₂CH₂) with water vapor at elevated temperatures.
A chemical engineer studying this reaction fills a 75 L tank with 32. mol of ethylene gas and 28. mol of water vapor. When the mixture has come to equilibrium
he determines that it contains 25.4 mol of ethylene gas and 21.4 mol of water vapor.
The engineer then adds another 9.3 mol of water, and allows the mixture to come to equilibrium again. Calculate the moles of ethanol after equilibrium is
reached the second time. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.

Follow-up Question
this one is asking for atm

Transcribed Image Text:"Synthesis gas" is a mixture of carbon monoxide and water vapor. At high temperature synthesis gas will form carbon dioxide and hydrogen, and in fact this
reaction is one of the ways hydrogen is made industrially.
A chemical engineer studying this reaction fills a 2.0 L flask with 2.5 atm of carbon monoxide gas and 2.6 atm of water vapor. When the mixture has come to
equilibrium she determines that it contains 1.3 atm of carbon monoxide gas, 1.4 atm of water vapor and 1.2 atm of carbon dioxide.
The engineer then adds another 0.63 atm of carbon monoxide, and allows the mixture to come to equilibrium again. Calculate the pressure of hydrogen after
equilibrium is reached the second time. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.
