Explanation / Answer

as the volume of gas is increasing, the partial pressures decreases.

so that, equilibrium shift towards more No of moloes side.

           N2O4(g) <===> 2NO2(g)

initial 0.971/0.75       0.058/0.75

          = 1.295 M       = 0.0773 M

after changing volume

   1.295*0.75/(2.25+0.75)   0.0773*0.75/(2.25+0.75)

              0.324 M        0.0193 M

chnage         - x             +2x

equil      0.324-x            0.0193+2x

Kc = [NO2]^2/[N2O4]

(4.61*10^-3) = (0.0193+2x)^2/(0.324-x)

X = 0.0094

part A : nO of mol of NO2 = (0.0193+2*0.0094)*3 = 0.1143 mol

part B : nO of mol of N2O4 = (0.324-0.0094)*3 = 0.9438 mol
