A 7.0 L evacuated chamber contains 0.50 mol H2 and 0.50 mol I2 reacting at 427 C. For H2(g) + I2(g) <=> 2HI(g), Kc = 49 at this temperature. What is the total pressure (in atm) inside the chamber at equilibrium?

  1. 83.14
  2. 831.4
  3. 8.21
  4. None

Correct answer: 8.21

Solution

Because the reaction has equal moles of gas on both sides, the total number of moles (1.0 mol) is unchanged at equilibrium, so the total pressure = nRT/V = (1.0)(0.0821)(700)/7.0 = 8.21 atm.
