MCQ
At a certain temp. the equilibrium constant $(K_C)$ is $16$ for reaction

$S{O_2} + N{O_2} \rightleftharpoons S{O_3} + NO$

If we take one mole of each of four gases in one $L$ container. What would be equilibrium concentration of $NO$ and $NO_2$ respectively

  • $1.6, 0.4$
  • B
    $0.4, 1.6$
  • C
    $0.4, 0.6$
  • D
    None

Answer

Correct option: A.
$1.6, 0.4$
a
$\mathrm{SO}_{2}(\mathrm{g})+\mathrm{N} \mathrm{O}_{2}(\mathrm{g}) \rightleftharpoons \mathrm{SO}_{3}(\mathrm{g})+\mathrm{NO}(\mathrm{g})$

111 Moles at $t=0$

$(1-x) \quad(1+x) \quad(1+x)$ (Moles at equilibrium)

$\therefore \mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{C}}=\frac{\left(\frac{1+\mathrm{x}}{\mathrm{V}}\right)\left(\frac{1+\mathrm{x}}{\mathrm{V}}\right)}{\left(\frac{1-\mathrm{x}}{\mathrm{V}}\right)\left(\frac{1-\mathrm{x}}{\mathrm{V}}\right)}=\frac{(1+\mathrm{x})^{2}}{(1-\mathrm{x})^{2}}$

$\therefore \frac{(1+\mathrm{x})^{2}}{(1-\mathrm{x})^{2}}=16 \quad\left(\because \mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{C}}=16\right)$

$\therefore \frac{(1+x)}{(1-x)}=4 \quad$ or $x=\frac{3}{5}=0.6$

$\therefore\left[\mathrm{SO}_{2}\right]=\left[\mathrm{NO}_{2}\right]=1-\mathrm{x}=1-0.6=0.4 \mathrm{M}$

$\left[\mathrm{SO}_{3}\right]=[\mathrm{NO}]=1+\mathrm{x}=1+0.6=1.6 \mathrm{M}$
