Car engines produce pollution through numerous reactions. One such reaction is the oxidation of nitrogen into nitrogen monoxide: N2 + O2 ⇌ NO a. 1.00 mol N2, 2.00 mol O2, and no moles of NO are initially mixed. At equilibrium there are 1.80 mol of O2 remaining. How many moles of N2 and NO are present at equilibrium? b. Calculate Kc for this reaction. c. Is the forward reaction, reverse reaction, or neither favored?
