General Questions

These questions are not explicitly keyed to chapter topics; many require integration of several concepts.

Carbonylbromide, COBr₂, can be formed by combining carbon monoxide and bromine gas.

When equilibrium is established at 346 K, the partial pressures (in atm) of COBr₂, CO, and Br₂ are 0.12, 1.00, and 0.65, respectively.

(a) What is K_P at 346 K?

(b) Enough bromine condenses to decrease its partial pressure to 0.50 atm. What are the equilibrium partial pressures of all gases after equilibrium is re-established?
