Solution

The correct option is D NO=0.0352mol,Br2=0.0178mol
The equilibrium reaction is as shown below.
2NO(g)+Br2(g)2NOBr(g)

NO
Br2
NOBr

0.043-x
2x
The number of moles of NOBr at equilibrium are 0.0518.
Thus 2x=0.0518mol or x=0.0259mol.
The number of moles of NO=(0.0870.0518)mol=0.0352mol.
The number of moles of Br2=(0.0430.0259)mol=0.0178mol.
