At 2300 K the value of K of the following reaction is 1.5 x10^-3:
N₂(g) + O₂(g) â†” 2NO(g)
At the instant when a reaction vessel at 2300K contains 0.50MN₂, 0.25M O₂, and 0.0042M NO, by calculationof the reaction quotient (Q), is the reaction mixture atequilibrium? If not, in which direction will the reaction proceedto reach equilibrium?

Answer. for the given reaction rate constant at equilibrium is 1.5x10^-3. and the concentrations of reactants and products are given as [N₂]=0.50M,[O₂]=0.25 M, [NO]=0.0042M.Â Â Â Â Â

reaction quotient Q= Â Â Â [NO]²/[N₂][O₂] =(0.0042x0.0042) /0.50x0.25 =1.411x10^-4 it is less than the K value so the reaction is noy at equilibrium position and the reaction proceed in the forward direction to reach equilibrium.
