Question

The value of KC for the thermal decomposition of hydrogen sulfide, shown below, is 2.2 × 10-4 at 1400 K.


2H2​S(g)⇌2H2​(g)+S2​(g)

A sample of gas in which [H2S] = 3.45 M is heated to 1400 K in a sealed vessel. After chemical equilibrium has been achieved, what is the value of [H2S]? Assume no H2 or S2 was present in the original sample.
