Chemical and Ionic Equilibrium - Result Question 24

####24. One mole of $N _2 O _4(g)$ at $300 K$ is kept in a closed container under one atmosphere. It is heated to $600 K$ when $20 %$ by mass of $N _2 O _4(g)$ decomposes to $NO _2(g)$. The resultant pressure is

(1996, 1M)

(a) $1.2 atm$

(b) $2.4 atm$

(c) $2.0 atm$

(d) $1.0 atm$

Show Answer

Solution:

$$ N _2 O _4 \rightleftharpoons 2 NO _2 $$

$$ \begin{array}{lccl} \text { At } 300 K: & 1.0 atm & 0 & \ \text { At } 600 K: & 2.0-0.40 & 0.80 \quad \text { Total pressure }=2.40 atm \end{array} $$
