Nitrogen dioxide is one of the many oxides of nitrogen (often collectively called "NOX") that are of interest to atmospheric chemistry. It can react with itself to form another form of NOx, dinitrogen tetroxide. A chemical engineer studying this reaction fills a 1.5 L flask with 3.4 atm of nitrogen dioxide gas. When the mixture has come to equilibrium he determines that it contains 2.2 atm of nitrogen dioxide gas. The engineer then adds another 1.1 atm of nitrogen dioxide, and allows the mixture to come to equilibrium again. Calculate the pressure of dinitrogen tetroxide after equilibrium is reached the second time. Round your answer to 2 significant digits. B atm

A chemist wants to prepare phosgene, COCl2, by the following reaction: CO(g)+Cl2(g)COCl2(g) He places 4.00 g of chlorine, Cl2, and an equal molar amount of carbon monoxide, CO, into a 10.00-L reaction vessel at 395C. After the reaction comes to equilibrium, he adds another 4.00 g of chlorine to the vessel in order to push the reaction to the right to get more product. What is the partial pressure of phosgene when the reaction again comes to equilibrium? Kc = 1.23 103.

Mustard gas, used in chemical warfare in World War I, has been found to be an effective agent in the chemotherapy of Hodgkin's disease. It can be produced according to the following reaction: SCl2(g)+2C2H4(g)S(CH2CH2Cl)2(g)An evacuated 5.0-1- flask at 20.0C is filled with 0.258 mol SCl2 and 0.592 mol C2H4.

A gaseous material XY(g) dissociates to some extent to produce X(g) and Y(g): XY(g)X(g)+Y(g) A 2.00-g sample of XY (molar mass = 165 g/mol) is placed in a container with a movable piston at 25C. The pressure is held constant at 0.967 atm. As XY begins to dissociate, the piston moves until 35.0 mole percent of the original XY has dissociated and then remains at a constant position. Assuming ideal behavior, calculate the density of the gas in the container after the piston has stopped moving, and determine the value of K for this reaction of 25C.
In the laboratory, hydrogen chloride (HCl(g)) and ammonia (NH3(g)) often escape from bottles of their solutions and react to form the ammonium chloride (NH4Cl(s)), the white glaze often seen on glassware. Assuming that the number of moles of each gas that escapes into the room is the same, what is the maximum partial pressure of HCl and NH3 in the laboratory at room temperature? (Hint: The partial pressures will be equal and are at their maximum value when at equilibrium.)
