Gaseous hydrogen and iodine are placed in a closed container at 425 degrees Celsius. The reactants react to produce the gaseous compound hydrogen iodide, which partially decomposes back into hydrogen and iodine gas as shown below.
H2 (g) + I2 (g) <----> 2HI (g)
You are given the following data.
[HI] = 2.53 * 10-4 M
[H2] = 3.79 * 10-4 M
[I2] = 3.79 * 10-4 M
Show the equilibrium Constant formula and state the value of Kc at this temperature.
My answer: 0.446
