Concept introduction:
The redox equation can be balanced by following a few steps:
Step1: Split the reaction into two halves; oxidation and reduction half.
Step2: The half reaction should be balanced.
Step3: Number of electrons should be made equal in both the reaction halves by multiplying with suitable coefficients.
Step4: The half reactions should be added and electrons should be cancelled to get final reaction.
Step5: General reactions can be balanced by balancing the number of atoms of each element in the molecules of both the LHS and RHS sides.

- Using reaction free energy to predict equilibrium composition Consider the following equilibrium: 2NO2 (g) = N2O4(g) AGº = -5.4 kJ Now suppose a reaction vessel is filled with 4.53 atm of dinitrogen tetroxide (N2O4) at 279. °C. Answer the following questions about this system: Under these conditions, will the pressure of N2O4 tend to rise or fall? Is it possible to reverse this tendency by adding NO2? In other words, if you said the pressure of N2O4 will tend to rise, can that be changed to a tendency to fall by adding NO2? Similarly, if you said the pressure of N2O4 will tend to fall, can that be changed to a tendency to '2' rise by adding NO2? If you said the tendency can be reversed in the second question, calculate the minimum pressure of NO 2 needed to reverse it.

If there's more than one major product, you can draw them in any arrangement you like. Be sure you use wedge and dash bonds if necessary, for example to distinguish between major products with different stereochemistry. If there will be no products because there will be no significant reaction, just check the box under the drawing area and leave it blank.
