Question

The equilibrium N2(g)+O2(g)2NO(g) is established in a reaction vessel of 2.5 L capacity. The amounts of N2 and O2 taken at the start were 4 and 6 moles, respectively, and half a mole of nitrogen was used up at equilibrium. What is the molar concentration of nitric oxide at equilibrium?

Solution

The correct option is B 0.4
Consider the equilibrium, N2(g)+O2(g)2NO(g)
N2(g) O2(g) NO(g)
No. of moles initially 4 mol 6 mol 0 mol
No. of moles at equilibrium 4 - 0.5 = 3.5 moles 6 - 0.5 = 5.5 moles 2×0.5=1 mol

Molar concentration of nitric oxide (c) = Number of moles / Volume of the gas
=12.5
=0.4
(Volume of the container is taken as the volume of the gas)

Hence, option (b) is the correct answer.
