Answer:
K = 2.96x10⁻¹⁰
Explanation:
Based on the initial reaction:
N2O4 ⇄ 2NO2; K = 1.5x10³
Using Hess's law, we can multiply this reaction changing K:
3 times this reaction:
3N2O4 ⇄ 6NO2; K = (1.5x10³)³ =3.375x10⁹
The inverse reaction has a K of:
6NO2 ⇄ 3N2O4 K = 1/3.375x10⁹;
<h3>K = 2.96x10⁻¹⁰</h3>
The answer lies in the stoichiometry of the reaction. If u look at the number BEFORE the reagent u will see the ratios of the reagents.
An increase in the number of gas molecules in the same volume container increases pressure. A decrease in container volume increases gas pressure. An increase in temperature of a gas in a rigid container increases the pressure.
