Question
Dinitrogen tetraoxide is a colorless gas at room temperature. It can dissociate into nitrogen dioxide, which is a reddish brown gas.
Three experiments were run starting with different initial amounts of N304(a) ([N;04lo in the table). The systems were allowed to reach equilibrium and the concentrations for each
gas were measured (in units of moles/Liter).
For each of the boxes below, cakulate the ratios indicated by the column heading. This will show the mathematical relationship that exists between the concentrations of NO, and
Ng04 at equilibrium.
Be sure to round to the correct number of significant figures.
Exp (N,0,lo (NO,) [N,04] (NO,] / [N,04] 2 [NO,] / [N,04] [NO,}? / [N,04)
1 3.7
2 3.1
2.92 2.2
2.64 1.8
3 2.4
2.24 1.3
Based on your calculations, indicate whether each statement is True (T) or False (F):
v1. Each experiment started with a different initial concentration of NgO4-
v2. The ratio ([NO,] / [N,04]) is equal to a constant value.
v3. The ratio (2 [NO2]/ [N,041) is equal to a constant value.
4. The ratio ([NO21? / [N04l) is equal to a constant value.
v5. Each experiment reached a different set of equilibrium concentrations.
