Question
An experiment involves the rxn: 2HI(g) ⇄ H2(g) + I2(g).
A sample of pure HI was placed inside a rigid container at a certain temperature. The table provides the initial and equilibrium concentrations for some of the substances in the rxn. Based on the data, which of the following is the value of the equilibrium constant (Keq) for the reaction, and why?
- Keq= 2.5×10−1, because [I2]eq = 2×[HI]eq.
- Keq= 6.3×10−2, because [I2]eq = ½ [HI]eq.
- Keq= 1.6×10−2, because [I2]eq = [H2]eq.
- Keq= 3.1×10−2, because [I2]eq = 2×[H2]eq.
