Answer:

The equilibrium concentrations are:

[SO2]=[NO2] = 0.563 M

[SO3]=[NO] = 1.04 M

Explanation:

Given:

Equilibrium constant K = 3.39

[SO2] = [NO2] = [SO3] = [NO] = 0.800 M

To determine:

The equilibrium concentrations of the above gases

Calculation:

Set-up an ICE table for the given reaction

[tex]SO2(g) + NO2(g)\rightleftharpoons SO3(g) + NO(g)[/tex]

I 0.800 0.800 0.800 0.800

C -x -x +x +x

E (0.800-x) (0.800-x) (0.800+x) (0.800+x)

The equilibrium constant is given as:

[tex]Keq = \frac{[SO3][NO]}{[SO2][NO2]}=\frac{(0.800+x)^{2}}{(0.800-x)^{2}}[/tex]

[tex]3.39=\frac{(0.800+x)^{2}}{(0.800-x)^{2}}[/tex]

x = 0.2368 M

[SO2]=[NO2] = 0.800 -x = 0.800 - 0.2368 = 0.5632 M

[SO3]=[NO] = 0.800 +x = 0.800 + 0.2368 = 1.037 M
