Consider the following reaction. 2 NO₂ (g) = N₂O4(g) 4 When the system is at equilibrium, it contains NO₂ at a pressure of 0.864 atm, and N₂О at a pressure of 0.0746 atm. The volume of the container is then reduced to half its original volume. What is the pressure of each gas after equilibrium is reestablished? PNO₂= PN₂04 = atm atm

The following equilibrium is established in a closed container: C(s)+O2(g)CO2(g)H=393kJmol1 How does the equilibrium shift in response to each of the following stresses? (a) The quantity of solid carbon is increased. (b) A small quantity of water is added, and CO2 dissolves in it. (c) The system is cooled. (d) The volume of the container is increased.
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.
