the following equilibrium exists between molecular and atomic oxygen

O2--2O

Kp=1.2*10^-10

If 2.00 moles of O2 is placed in a 10L flask and heated to 1800K, how many O atom would be present in the flask at equilibrium

Solutions

Expert Solution

         O2(g)----->2O(g)

    KP   = Kc(RT)^n

   n = 2-1 = 1

     T    = 1800K

     R   = 0.0821L-atm/mole-K

KP   = Kc(RT)^n

   1.2*10^-10 = Kc(0.0821*1800)^1

    Kc             = 1.2*10^-10/147.78   = 8.12*10^-13

O2(g)----->2O(g)

I 2                0

C        -x               2x

E      2-x               2x

   Kc   = [O]^2/[O2]

   8.12*10^-13   = (2x)^2/2-x

8.12*10^-13*(2-x) = 4x^2'

       x = 6.37*10^-7

   no of moles of O = 6.37*10^-7 moles

no of atoms = no of moles * 6.023*10^23 * atomicity

                     = 6.37*10^-7*6.023*10^23*2

                     = 7.67*10^17 atoms >>>>>answer
