More Challenging Questions

These questions require more thought and integrate several concepts.

A 1.00-mol sample of CO₂ is heated to 1000. K with excess solid graphite in a sealed, 40.0-L container. At 1000. K, K_c is 2.11 × 10^-2 for the reaction

(a) What is the composition of the equilibrium mixture at 1000. K?

(b) If the volume of the flask is changed and a new equilibrium established in which the amount of CO₂ is equal to the amount of CO, what is the new volume of the flask? (Assume the temperature remains 1000. K.)
