At 473 K, for the elementary reaction:

2NOCl(g)k1⇌k22NO(g)+Cl2(g)

k1=7.8×10−2L/mol⋅s and
k2=4.7×102L2/mol2⋅s


A sample of NOCl is placed in a container and heated to 473 K. When the system comes to equilibrium, [NOCl] is 0.24 mol/L.

Find the concentration of NO.

Find the concentration of Cl2

Solutions

Expert Solution

k = k1 / k2

   = 7.8 x 10^-2 / 4.7 x 10^2

   = 1.66 x 10^-4

2 NOCl (g)   --------------->   2 NO (g) + Cl2 (g)

   a                                         0               0

a - 2x                                      2x               x

At equilibrium :

NOCl = 0.24

a - 2x = 0.24

K = [NO]^2[Cl2] / [NOCl]^2

1.66 x 10^-4 = (2x)^2 * x / (0.24)^2

x = 0.0134

concentration of NO = 0.027 M

concentration of Cl2 = 0.013 M
