Question

The reduction of NO by H2 has been studied for decades. If a flask contains 0.65 M nitrogen monoxide, 0.28 M water vapor, 0.31 M nitrogen gas, and 0.225 M hydrogen gas, compare the reaction quotient Qc to Kc and predict whether the reaction will shift towards products or reactants. 2 NO(g)+2H2(g) *) 2 H2O(g)+N2(g) Kc = 0.022

(a) (10 pts) Q value:

(b) (5 pts) ○ It is impossible to make this prediction ○ Reaction is at equilibrium ○ Reaction will shift towards products ○ Reaction will shift towards reactants ○ None of the above
