[6] 4. A 1.00 g sample of N2O
5
gas was placed in an evacuated 1.00 L container
and heated to 773 K. When the endothermic dissociation reaction shown below reached
equilibrium, the total pressure inside the container was found to be 0.882 atm.
(endothermic)
a)
By using the information provided, calculate K
p
for the above reaction at 773 K.
b)
How would the percent dissociation of N2O
5
gas be affected by each of the
following changes in conditions? How would K
p
be affected in each case?
Write: increase, decrease or no change.
