Answer:

[HI] = 0.264M

Explanation:

Based on the equilibrium:

2HI(g) ⇄ H₂(g) + I₂(g)

It is possible to define Kc of the reaction as the ratio between concentration of products and reactants using coefficients of each compound, thus:

<em>Kc = 0.0156 = [H₂] [I₂] / [HI]²</em>

<em />

As initial concentration of HI is 0.660mol / 2.00L = <em>0.330M, </em>the equlibrium concentrations will be:

[HI] = 0.330M - 2X

[H₂] = X

[I₂] = X

<em>Where X is reaction coefficient.</em>

<em />

Replacing in Kc:

0.0156 = [X] [X] / [0.330M - 2X]²

0.0156 = X² / [0.1089 - 1.32X + 4X² ]

0.00169884 - 0.020592 X + 0.0624 X² = X²

0.00169884 - 0.020592 X - 0.9376 X² = 0

Solving for X:

X = - 0.055 → False solution, there is no negative concentrations

X = 0.0330 → Right solution.

Replacing in HI formula:

[HI] = 0.330M - 2×0.033M

<h3>[HI] = 0.264M</h3>
