At 2300 K the equilibrium constant for the formation of NO(g) is 1.7 103. N2(g) + O2(g) 2 NO(g) (a) Analysis shows that the concentrations of N2 and O2 are both 0.25 M, and that of NO is 0.0042 M under certain conditions. Is the system at equilibrium? (b) If the system is not at equilibrium, in which direction does the reaction proceed? (c) When the system is at equilibrium, what are the equilibrium concentrations?
At room temperature, the equilibrium constant Kc for the reaction 2 NO(g) ⇌ N2(g) + O2(g) is 1.4 × 1030. Is this reaction product-favored or reactant-favored? Explain your answer. In the atmosphere at room temperature the concentration of N2 is 0.33 mol/L, and the concentration of O2 is about 25% of that value. Calculate the equilibrium concentration of NO in the atmosphere produced by the reaction of N2 and O2. How does this affect your answer to Question 11?
Methanol, a common laboratory solvent, poses a threat of blindness or death if consumed in sufficient amounts. Once in the body, the substance is oxidized to produce formaldehyde (embalming fluid) and eventually formic acid. Both of these substances are also toxic in varying levels. The equilibrium between methanol and formaldehyde can be described as follows: CH3OH(aq)H2CO(aq)+H2(aq) Assuming the value of K for this reaction is 3.7 1010, what are the equilibrium concentrations of each species if you start with a 1.24 M solution of methanol? What will happen to the concentration of methanol as the formaldehyde is further converted to formic acid?

Nitrosyl chloride, NOC1, decomposes to NO and Cl2 at high temperatures. 2 NOCl(g) ⇌ 2 NO(g) + Cl2(g) Suppose you place 2.00 mol NOC1 in a 1.00–L flask, seal it, and raise the temperature to 462 °C. When equilibrium has been established, 0.66 mol NO is present. Calculate the equilibrium constant Kc for the decomposition reaction from these data.
