Chapter 13, Problem 13.118CHP

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

At equilibrium the partial pressure of ${\text{NO, NO}}_{\text{2}}\text{, and}{\text{N}}_{\text{2}}{\text{O}}_{\text{3}}$ has to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

Calculation of equilibrium partial pressure from initial partial pressure:

• The balanced equation for given reaction has to be written.
• Set up an equilibrium table to calculate x value
• The value of x is solved by substituting partial pressures of chemical species in equilibrium constant expression.
• The partial pressure of chemical species at equilibrium is calculated from value of x

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The volume of the reaction containerhas to be calculated.
