If in the gaseous phase reaction, N2O4 ⇌ 2NO2, x is the part of N2O4 which dissociates, then the number of molecules at equilibrium will be___________________?

Correct answer: A. (1 + x)

  • A. (1 + x)
  • B. (1 - x)
  • C. (1 + x)2
  • D. (1 - x)2

Explanation

Taking one initial mole of N₂O₄, the undissociated amount is 1 − x and dissociation produces 2x moles of NO₂. Thus, total equilibrium molecules are (1 − x) + 2x = 1 + x.
