1.

A vessel contains equal mass of CO2 and N2O . The mole fraction of CO2 is..​

Answer»

Answer:33.3

Explanation:INITIAL partial pressures of CO and CO  

2

​  

 are 3 atm and 2 atm respectively.

               2CO(g)⇋CO  

2

​  

(g)+C(s)

To reach EQUILIBRIUM, 2x atm of CO reacts to FORM x atm of CO  

2

​  

 

The equilibrium partial pressures of CO and CO  

2

​  

 are 3−2x atm and 2+x atm respectively.

Total equilibrium PRESSURE is (3−2x)+(2+x)=5−x atm. But it is equal to 4.5 atm.

4.5=5−x

x=5−4.5

x=0.5
