At 500K, the equilibrium constant for the reaction N2O4D2NO2 is 1.5 x 10^3. What is the equilibrium constant for the reaction: 6
Veronika [31]

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>

Which of these characteristics best describes a basic solution?
mario62 [17]
I believe the correct answer would be that it feels slippery. Being slippery or soapy is one characteristic of a base. This due to the fact that it dissolves the oils and fatty acids from the skin.  Other characteristics would be that it turns litmus paper blue and has a bitter taste.
