Practice Problem 7
The rate constants for the forward and reverse reactions in the following equilibrium have been measured. At 25°C, kf is 7.3 x 103 liters per mole-second and kr is 0.55 liters per mole-second. Calculate the equilibrium constant for this reaction:
ClNO2(g) + NO(g) NO2(g) + ClNO(g)
Answer
1.3 x 104
