The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the equilibrium pressures of all gases involved in the reaction: \[ H_2(g) + Br_2(g) \rightleftharpoons 2HBr(g) \] Given: - Equilibrium constant \( K_p = 1.6 \times 10^5 \) at \( 1024 \, K \) - Initial pressure of \( HBr = 10.0 \, bar \) ### Step 1: Set up the initial conditions At the start (t = 0), we have: - \( P_{HBr} = 10.0 \, bar \) - \( P_{H2} = 0 \, bar \) - \( P_{Br2} = 0 \, bar \) ### Step 2: Define the change in pressures Let \( P \) be the change in pressure of \( HBr \) that reacts to reach equilibrium. Since the stoichiometry of the reaction shows that 2 moles of \( HBr \) are produced for every mole of \( H_2 \) and \( Br_2 \) that reacts, we can express the changes in pressure as follows: - Change in \( HBr \): \( -2P \) - Change in \( H2 \): \( +P \) - Change in \( Br2 \): \( +P \) ### Step 3: Write the equilibrium pressures At equilibrium, the pressures will be: - \( P_{HBr} = 10.0 - 2P \) - \( P_{H2} = P \) - \( P_{Br2} = P \) ### Step 4: Substitute into the equilibrium expression The equilibrium constant expression for the reaction in terms of partial pressures is: \[ K_p = \frac{(P_{HBr})^2}{(P_{H2})(P_{Br2})} \] Substituting the equilibrium pressures: \[ 1.6 \times 10^5 = \frac{(10.0 - 2P)^2}{(P)(P)} \] This simplifies to: \[ 1.6 \times 10^5 = \frac{(10.0 - 2P)^2}{P^2} \] ### Step 5: Rearrange the equation Rearranging gives: \[ 1.6 \times 10^5 P^2 = (10.0 - 2P)^2 \] ### Step 6: Expand and simplify Expanding the right side: \[ 1.6 \times 10^5 P^2 = 100 - 40P + 4P^2 \] Rearranging gives: \[ (1.6 \times 10^5 - 4)P^2 + 40P - 100 = 0 \] This simplifies to: \[ 1.59996 \times 10^5 P^2 + 40P - 100 = 0 \] ### Step 7: Solve the quadratic equation Using the quadratic formula \( P = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} \): - \( a = 1.59996 \times 10^5 \) - \( b = 40 \) - \( c = -100 \) Calculating the discriminant: \[ D = b^2 - 4ac = 40^2 - 4 \times (1.59996 \times 10^5)(-100) \] Calculating \( P \): \[ P = \frac{-40 \pm \sqrt{D}}{2 \times 1.59996 \times 10^5} \] Calculating the positive root gives us \( P \approx 0.0498 \, bar \). ### Step 8: Calculate equilibrium pressures Now substituting \( P \) back to find the equilibrium pressures: - \( P_{HBr} = 10.0 - 2(0.0498) \approx 10.0 \, bar \) (remains almost unchanged) - \( P_{H2} = P \approx 0.0498 \, bar \) - \( P_{Br2} = P \approx 0.0498 \, bar \) ### Final Answer - \( P_{HBr} \approx 10.0 \, bar \) - \( P_{H2} \approx 0.0498 \, bar \) - \( P_{Br2} \approx 0.0498 \, bar \)

To solve the problem, we need to find the equilibrium pressures of all gases involved in the reaction: \[ H_2(g) + Br_2(g) \rightleftharpoons 2HBr(g) \] Given: - Equilibrium constant \( K_p = 1.6 \times 10^5 \) at \( 1024 \, K \) - Initial pressure of \( HBr = 10.0 \, bar \) ...
