The following reaction was performed in a sealed vessel at 791 ∘C :

H2(g)+I2(g)⇌2HI(g)

Initially, only H2 and I2 were present at concentrations of [H2]=4.00M and [I2]=2.40M . The equilibrium concentration of I2 is 0.0500 M . What is the equilibrium constant, Kc, for the reaction at this temperature?

Express your answer numerically.

Answer #1

ICE Table:

Given at equilibrium,

[HI] = 0.05

+2x = 0.05

x = 0.025

Equilibrium constant expression is

Kc = [HI]^2/[H2][I2]

Kc = (+2x)^2/(4.0-1x)(2.4-1x)

Kc = (+2*0.025)^2/(4.0-1*0.025)(2.4-1*0.025)

Kc = 2.65*10^-4

Answer: 2.65*10^-4
