Question

At 500C500^{\circ} \mathrm{C}, the reaction

SO2(g)+NO2(g)NO(g)+SO3(g)\mathrm{SO}_2(g)+\mathrm{NO}_2(g) \rightleftharpoons \mathrm{NO}(g)+\mathrm{SO}_3(g)

has Koq=81K_{\mathrm{oq}}=81. What will be the equilibrium concentrations of the four gases if the two reactants begin with equal concentrations of 0.50 M0.50~M ?

In this task, we need to calculate equilibrium concentrations of gases.

For the reaction:

aA+bBcC+dD\text{aA}+\text{bB} \rightleftharpoons \text{cC} +\text{dD}

the Keq_{eq} is:

Keq=[C]c[D]d[Bb][A]aK_{eq}=\dfrac{[\text{C}]^c[\text{D}]^d}{[\text{B}^b][\text{A}]^a}

The equilibrium constant is equal to the product of the concentration of the products raised to the potency of its stoichiometric factor divided by the product of the concentration of the reactants raised to the potency of its stoichiometric factor.

Using the KeqK_{eq} we can calculate xx. When we know the xx (change) we can calculate equilibrium concentrations.
