Consider the elementary gas-phase reversible reaction A 3C Pure A enters at a temperature of 400 K and a pressure of 10 atm. At this temperature, KC 0.25(mol/dm3)2. Calculate the equilibrium conversion for each of the following situations:

Explanation:

The equilibrium equation is:

The initial concentration of A can be calculated from the ideal gas equation:

Determine the conversion of substance A to substance C using an ICE table and the Kc constant:

             A               ⇄          3C

I            0.304                        0

C             - x                          + 3x

E          0.304 - x                   3x

Solve for x:

You need to use a graphing calculator:

Then:

The equilbrium conversion is:

answer is slate
