When NO2 is cooled to room temperature, some of it reacts to form dimmer, N2O4,through the reaction 2NO2--->N2O4. Suppose 15.2 g of NO2 is placed in a 10L flask at high temperature and the flask is cooled to 25°C. The total pressure is measured to be 0.5 atm. What is the partial pressure of NO2 in the flask after the reaction comes to equilibrium? A. 0.19 atm B. 0.25 atm C. 0.28 atm D. 0.32 atm
