The equilibrium expression for a chemical reaction is Keq = [NOBr]/[NO]? Br2)
What is the reaction?

A)2NO+Br2 = 2NOBr
B)2NO = 2NOBr + Br2
C)2NOBr = 2NO+Br2
D)O Br2 = 2NO + 2NOBr

Respuesta :

Answer: [tex]2NO+Br_2\rightleftharpoons 2NOBr[/tex]

Explanation:

Equilibrium constant is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each raised to the power their stoichiometric ratios. It is expressed as [tex]K_{eq}[/tex]

The expression for [tex]K_{eq}[/tex] is given as:

[tex]K_{eq}=\frac{[NOBr]^2}{[NO]^2[Br_2]}[/tex]

Thus in the reaction, [tex]NOBr[/tex] has to be product and [tex]NO[/tex] and [tex]Br_2[/tex] has to be reactants, the reaction has to be [tex]2NO+Br_2\rightleftharpoons 2NOBr[/tex]
