Explanation:
Hello there!
Unfortunately, the question is not given in the question; however, it is possible for us to compute the equilibrium constant as the problem is providing the concentrations at equilibrium. Thus, we first set up the equilibrium expression as products/reactants:
![K=\frac{[NO_2]^2}{[NO]^2[O_2]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=K%3D%5Cfrac%7B%5BNO_2%5D%5E2%7D%7B%5BNO%5D%5E2%5BO_2%5D%7D)
Then, we plug in the concentrations at equilibrium to obtain the equilibrium constant as follows:
In addition, we can infer this is a reaction that predominantly tends to the product (NO2) as K>>>>1.
Best regards!
From the given pH, we calculate the concentration of H+:
[H+] = 10^-pH = 10^-5.5
We then use the volume to solve for the number of moles of H+:
moles H+ = 10^-5.5M * 4.3x10^9 L = 13598 moles
From the balanced equation of the neutralization of hydrogen ion by limestone written as
CaCO3(s) + 2H+(aq) → Ca2+(aq) + H2CO3(aq)
we use the mole ratio of limestone CaCO3 and H+ from their coefficients, which is 1 mole of CaCO3 is to react with 2 moles of H+, to compute for the mass of the limestone:
mass CaCO3 = 13598mol H+(1mol CaCO3/2mol H+)
(100.0869g CaCO3/1mol CaCO3)(1kg/1000g)
= 680 kg
