Explanation / Answer

let volume be 1L , P = 0.755 atm , T = 339+273 = 612 K ,

PV = nRT   hence ( 0.755 x 1) = n x 0.08206 x 612 ,   n = total moles of gas = 0.015

Let initial moles of NO2 = a , then at equilibrum NO2 moles = a-2x , NO2 moles = 2x , O2 moles = x

total gas moles at equilibrium = a+x = 0.015

mass of mixture = density x volume = 0.52 x 1 = 0.52 g

Now mass = moles x molar mass

hence total mass 0.52 = ( a-2x) x 46   + ( 2x) ( 30 ) + ( X)(32)

                    0.52 = 46a-92x + 60x + 32x

                     0.52 = 46a   , a = 0.0113 ,

a+x = 0.015 , x= 0.015-0.0113= 0.0037 ,

hence now Kc = [NO]^2 [O2] /[NO2] = ( 2 x 0.0037)^x ( 0.0037) / ( 0.0113-2(0.0037)^2

               = 0.00333
