Question

An equilibrium mixture in a vessel of capacity 100 litre contain 1 mol N2, 2 mol O2 and 3 mol NO. Number of moles of O2 to be added so that at new equilibrium the conc. of NO is found to be 0.04 mol/lit.:

Options

A.(101/18)
B.(101/9)
C.(202/9)
D.None of these

Solution

N2 (g)    +    O2 (g)        2NO (g)
1mole          2mole         3mole
KC = .
Let a mole of O2 is added, Then,
N2 (g)    +    O2 (g)     2NO (g)
1mole        2mole        3mole
t = 0    1        (2 + a)        3
(1 -x)        (2 + a)-x    (3 + 2x)
[NO] = = 0.04    ;    (3 + 2x) = 4.
2x = 1,        x = 0.5.
KC =
KC =

= = [1.5 + a]
7.11 = 1.5 + a .
a = = 5.61
