A gaseous mixture of 10.0 volumes of CO₂, 1.00 volume of unreacted O₂, and 50.0 volumes of unreacted N₂ leaves an engineat 4.0 atm and 800. K. Assuming that the mixture reaches equilibrium, what are (b) the concentration (in picograms per liter, pg/L) of CO in this exhaust gas?2CO₂(g) ⇄ 2CO(g) + O₂(g) Kp = 1.4×10⁻²⁸ at 800K(The actual concentration of CO in exhaust gas is much higher because the gases do not reach equilibrium in the short transit time through the engine and exhaust system.)

The masses of CO and CO2 are 90.55g and 100−90.55=9.45 g respectively.

Let the mixture has 100g as total mass.

The number of moles of CO is 2890.55=3.234.

The number of moles of CO2 is 449.45=0.215.

The mole fraction of CO is 3.234+0.2153.234=0.938.

The mole fraction of CO2 is 1−0.938=0.062.

The partial pressure of CO is the product of the mole fraction of CO and the total pressure.

It is 0.938×1=0.938 atm.

The partial pressure of carbon dioxide is 0.062×1=0.042 atm.

The expression for the equilibrium constant is:

Kp=PCO2PCO2=0.062(0.938)2=14.19

Δng=2−1=1

Kc=Kp(RT)−Δn=14.19×(0.0821×1127)−1=0.153.
