Nitrogen Monoxide Molecules Can React to Form Dinitrogen Oxide and Nitrogen

question 52

Essay

Nitrogen monoxide molecules can react to form dinitrogen oxide and nitrogen dioxide.Write the balanced reaction equilibrium using the smallest whole-number coefficients possible.Determine the equilibrium constant for this reaction under standard conditions from the following data and note whether the reaction is product favored or reactant favored.
$\Delta$ G ^$\circ$ (NO,g)= 86.6 kJ/mol
$\Delta$ G ^$\circ$ (N₂O,g)= 104.2 kJ/mol
$\Delta$ G ^$\circ$ (NO₂,g)= 51.3 kJ/mol
