The answer is D because there is no forces of attraction or repulsion between gas particles .
They should identify the confounding variable.
Some condition that is not examined by the scientist might alter the experiment result. That condition is called confounding variable. If the method of the experiment same but result is very different, there should be unidentified confounding variable. It could be air humidity, temperature, ventilation, light, time of the year or anything that might not be seen by naked eye.
Try to redo the experiment with controlling variable as much as possible.
Your answer would be 0.00285 moles.
The equilibrium constant is 0.0022.
Explanation:
The values given in the problem is
ΔG° = 1.22 ×10⁵ J/mol
T = 2400 K.
R = 8.314 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹
The Gibbs free energy should be minimum for a spontaneous reaction and equilibrium state of any reaction is spontaneous reaction. So on simplification, the thermodynamic properties of the equilibrium constant can be obtained as related to Gibbs free energy change at constant temperature.
The relation between Gibbs free energy change with equilibrium constant is ΔG° = -RT ln K
So, here K is the equilibrium constant. Now, substitute all the given values in the corresponding parameters of the above equation.
We get,



So, the equilibrium constant is 0.0022.
