The following reaction was performed in a sealed vessel at 797 ∘C :

H2(g)+I2(g)⇌2HI(g)

Initially, only H2 and I2 were present at concentrations of [H2]=3.15M and  [I2]=2.50M. The equilibrium concentration of I2 is 0.0900 M . What is the equilibrium constant, Kc, for the reaction at this temperature?

Answer #1

Ans.

Initial concentration of H2 = 3.15M

Initial concentration of I2 = 2.50M

The given equilibrium is

The ICE table for the reaction is

[H2] [I2] [HI]
I 3.15M 2.50M 0
C -x -x +2x
E 3.15-x 2.50-x 2x

The equilibrium concentration of I2 is 0.0900M

Therefore,

Since the value of 'x' is already known, you can also calculate the equilibrium concentration of H2 and HI

The expression for Kc is

Therefore, the equilibrium Kc at the given temperature is 349
