Chapter 12, Problem 96CWP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The equilibrium partial pressure of ${\text{NO}}_{\text{2}}{}_{\left(g\right)}$ and ${\text{N}}_2{\text{O}}_4{}_{\left(g\right)}$ is to be calculated.

Concept introduction: The equilibrium constant $K_{\text{p}}$ describes the ratio of the reactant to the product on the equilibrium conditions in terms of partial pressure.

The equilibrium constant depends upon temperature.

Law of mass action is applicable on the equilibrium reactions.

To determine: The values of equilibrium partial pressure of ${\text{NO}}_{\text{2}}{}_{\left(g\right)}$ and ${\text{N}}_2{\text{O}}_4{}_{\left(g\right)}$.
