The reaction,N2 (g) + O2(g)→2NO(g) contributes to air pollution whenever a fuel is burnt in air at high temperature. At 1500K, equilibrium constant K for it is at a high temperature. At 1500K, equilibrium constant K for it is 1.0X10-5 . Suppose in a case [N2]=0.8 mol L-1 and [O2]=0.2 mol L-1 before any reaction occurs. Calculate the equilibrium concentrations of the reactants and the product after the mixture has been heated to 1500K.
