2H2S (g) = 2H2 (g) + S2 (g)
When heated hydrogen sulfide gas decomposes according to the equation above. A 3.40g smple of H2S(g) is introduced into an evacuated rigid 1.25 L container. The sealed container is heated to 483 K, and 3.72 x10-2 mol of S2 (g) is present at equilibrium.
a) Write the expression for the equilibrium constant, Kc for the decomposition reaction represented above.
b) Calculate the equilibrium concentration in M of H2 (g) and H2S (g) in the container 483 K
c) Calculate the value of the equilibrium constant Kc for the decomposition reaction of 483K
K =[ H2 ]^2 [S2 ] / [H2S ] ^2
