Chapter 12: Problem 71
Calculate a value for the equilibrium constant for the reaction $$\mathbf{O}_{2}(g)+\mathbf{O}(g) \rightleftharpoons \mathbf{O}_{3}(g)$$.given $$\begin{aligned}& \mathrm{NO}_{2}(g) \stackrel{h v}{\rightleftharpoons} \mathrm{NO}(g)+\mathrm{O}(g) & & K=6.8 \times 10^{-49} \\\\\mathrm{O}_{3}(g)+\mathrm{NO}(g) & \rightleftharpoons \mathrm{NO}_{2}(g)+\mathrm{O}_{2}(g) & & K=5.8 \times 10^{-34}\end{aligned}$$.(Hint: When reactions are added together, the equilibrium expressions are multiplied.)
