\[-\frac{{60.6{\rm{\;torr\;}}\cdot 2}}{3}=-40.4{\rm{\;torr\;}}\]

\[+\frac{{60.6{\rm{\;torr\;}}}}{3}=+20.2{\rm{\;torr\;}}\]

\[60.6{\rm{\;torr\;}}\]

e)

Question:At 1 atm and \(2{5^o}C,N{O_2}\) with an initial concentration of \(1.00M\;is\;3.3 \times 1{0^{ - 3}}\% \)decomposed into \(NO\;and\;{O_2}\). Calculate the value of the equilibrium constant for the reaction. \(2N{O_2}(g) \rightleftharpoons 2NO(g) + {O_2}(g)\)

Acetic acid is a weak acid that reacts with water according to this equation:

\(C{H_3}C{O_2}H(aq) + {H_2}O(aq) \rightleftharpoons {H_3}{O^ + }(aq) + C{H_3}CO_2^ - (aq)\)

Will any of the following increase the percent of acetic acid that reacts and produces \(C{H_3}CO_2^ - \)ion?

(a) Addition of \(HCl\)

(b) Addition of \(NaOH\)

(c) Addition of \(NaC{H_3}C{O_2}\)

Question: \(\;A\;0.72 - mol\)sample of \(PC{l_5}\)is put into a \(1.00 - L\) vessel and heated. At equilibrium, the vessel contains \(0.40mol\) of \(PC{l_3}(g)\) and \(0.40mol\;of\;C{l_2}(g)\). Calculate the value of the equilibrium constant for the decomposition of \(PC{l_5}\;to\;\)\(PC{l_3}\;and\;C{l_2}\)at this temperature.

Round the following to the indicated number of significant figures:

(a) 0.424 (to two significant figures)

(b) 0.0038661 (to three significant figures)

(c) 421.25 (to four significant figures)

(d) 28,683.5 (to five significant figures)

Calculate the equilibrium concentrations of NO, O2, and NO2 in a mixture at 250 °C that results from the reaction of 0.20 M NO and 0.10 M O2. (Hint: K is large; assume the reaction goes to completion then comes back to equilibrium.)

\(2NO(g) + {O_2}(g) \rightleftharpoons 2N{O_2}(g)\quad {K_c} = 2.3 \times 1{0^5}\;at\;25{0^o}C\)
