Chapter 6, Problem 71AE

a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:Concentration of $\text{NO}$ in below reaction is to be determined.

  ${\text{N}}_{\text{2}}\left(g\right)+{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}\left(g\right)\rightleftharpoons 2\text{NO}\left(g\right)$

Concept introduction: Chemical equilibrium is taken into consideration if rate of forward and backward reactions becomes equal. At this stage, both reactants and products have constant concentration. It can be studied in terms of pressure also. Equilibrium constant in pressure is denoted by $K_{\text{p}}$ .

b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:Reason for discrepancy between calculated value and pristine values of concentrationshould be calculated.

  ${\text{N}}_{\text{2}}\left(g\right)+{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}\left(g\right)\rightleftharpoons 2\text{NO}\left(g\right)$

Concept introduction: Chemical equilibrium is taken into consideration if rate of forward and backward reactions becomes equal. At this stage, both reactants and products have constant concentration.
