Answer:
0.4 M
Explanation:
Equilibrium occurs when the velocity of the formation of the products is equal to the velocity of the formation of the reactants. It can be described by the equilibrium constant, which is the multiplication of the concentration of the products elevated by their coefficients divided by the multiplication of the concentration of the reactants elevated by their coefficients. So, let's do an equilibrium chart for the reaction.
Because there's no O₂ in the beginning, the NO will decompose:
N₂(g) + O₂(g) ⇄ 2NO(g)
0.30 0 0.70 Initial
+x +x -2x Reacts (the stoichiometry is 1:1:2)
0.30+x x 0.70-2x Equilibrium
The equilibrium concentrations are the number of moles divided by the volume (0.250 L):
[N₂] = (0.30 + x)/0.250
[O₂] = x/0.25
[NO] = (0.70 - 2x)/0.250
K = [NO]²/([N₂]*[O₂])
K =
7.70 = (0.70-2x)²/[(0.30+x)*x]
7.70 = (0.49 - 2.80x + 4x²)/(0.30x + x²)
4x² - 2.80x + 0.49 = 2.31x + 7.70x²
3.7x² + 5.11x - 0.49 = 0
Solving in a graphical calculator (or by Bhaskara's equation), x>0 and x<0.70
x = 0.09 mol
Thus,
[O₂] = 0.09/0.250 = 0.36 M ≅ 0.4 M
Answer:
B
Explanation:
This question is about stoichiometry. From the balanced equation ⇒
, we see that 3 moles of water is needed to react with 1 mole of
.
This means that, to fully react 3.62 moles of , we would need 3*3.62 or 10.86 moles of water. However, we only have 6.31 moles, so water is the limiting reactant.
Since 3 moles of water react with 1 mole of , 6.31 moles of water can fully react with 6.31÷3 or 2.1033 moles of
.
From the balanced equation, we see that every mole of reacted gets you 2 moles of
. Therefore, 2.1033 moles of
would give you approximately 4.21 moles of
.
