The equilibrium constant is 8.8 x 102 at a particular temperature for the reaction: H2 (g) + I2 (g) ⇌ 2HI (g) Use this information to decide what will happen, given the following sets of initial conditions: Will the reaction shift to the left, to the right or will the system be at equilibrium? A 4.0 L flask contains 1.17 mol H2, 0.083 mol I2 and 8.11 mol HI. A 2.0 L flask contains 0.0455 mol H2, 0.012 mol I2 and 0.693 mol HI. PH2 = 0.5380 torr, PI2 = 0.066 torr, PHI = 5.59 torr PH2 = 0.47 torr, PI2 = 0.061 torr, PHI = 5.99 torr

    when the balanced equation for the reaction is:

    H2 (g) + i2 (g) ⇄ 2Hi

    initial 0.5 0.5 X

    -X - X + X

    Final (0.5-x) (0.5-x) 2X

    by substitution at the Kc formula:

    Kc = [Hi]^2 / [H2] * [i2]

    53.3 = (2X) ^2 / (0.5-X) (0.5-X) by taking the square route

    √53.3 = 2X / (0.5-X)

    ∴X = 0.39 m

    ∴[Hi] = 0.39 m
