0.600 moles of NO and 0.750 moles of O₂ are placed in an empty 2.00 L flask. The system is allowed to establish equilibrium. What will be the equilibrium concentration of each species in the flask?

2 NO_(g) + O_2(g) ⇄ 2 NO_2(g)

Kc = 5.00 x 10^-6

use 5% rule (no quadratic equation)

• [NO₂] = 4.1x10^-4, [NO] = 0.300, [O₂] = 0.375

• [NO₂] = 2.05x10^-4, [NO] = 0.600, [O₂] = 0.750

• [NO₂] = 2.05x10^-4, [NO] = 0.300, [O₂] = 0.375
