Question
The first two steps in the industrial synthesis of nitric acid produce nitrogen dioxide from ammonia:
4 NH, (g) + 50, (g)=4 NO (g)+ 6 H,0 (g)
K1
2 NO (g) + 0, (g) =2NO,(g)
K2
The net reaction is:
4 NH3 (g)+ 70, (g) =4 NO, (g)+6H,0 (g)
K
Write an equation that gives the overall equilibrium constant K in terms of the equilibrium constants K, and K,. If you need to include any physical constants,
be sure you use their standard symbols, which you'll find in the ALEKS Calculator.
