Answer:

61 atm

Explanation:

You can calculate osmotic pressure using the following equation:

π = i MRT

In this equation,

-----> π = osmotic pressure (atm)

-----> i = van't Hoff's factor

-----> M = molarity (M)

-----> R = Ideal Gas Constant (0.08206 atm*L/mol*K)

-----> T = temperature (K)

The van't Hoff's factor is the amount of ions the substance dissociates into. Since sugar does not dissociate, this value is 1. After converting Celsius to Kelvin, you can plug the values into the equation and simplify.

i = 1 R = 0.08206 atm*L/mol*K

M = 2.5 M T = 25 °C + 273.15 = 298.15 K

π = i MRT

π = (1)(2.5 M)(0.08206 atm*L/mol*K)(298.15 K)

π = 61 atm

Answer: The value of the equilibrium constant Kc for this reaction is 3.72

Explanation:

Equilibrium concentration of $HNO_3$ = $\frac{15.5g}{63g/mol\times 9.5L}=0.026M$

Equilibrium concentration of $NO$ = $\frac{16.6g}{30g/mol\times 9.5L}=0.058M$

Equilibrium concentration of $NO_2$ = $\frac{22.5g}{46g/mol\times 9.5L}=0.051M$

Equilibrium concentration of $H_2O$ = $\frac{189.0g}{18g/mol\times 9.5L}=1.10M$

Equilibrium constant is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each raised to the power their stoichiometric ratios. It is expressed as $K_c$
