    For a reversible reaction, \[{{N}_{2}}+3{{H}_{2}}\rightleftharpoons 2N{{H}_{3}},\] \[{{K}_{c}}\]is \[2.37\times {{10}^{-3}}.\] If at equilibrium, \[[{{N}_{2}}]=2M,\,\,[{{H}_{2}}]=3M,\] the concentration of\[N{{H}_{3}}\]is:

    A)  0.00358 M         

    B)  0.0358 M            

    C)         3.58 M          

    D)         0.358 M

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    \[\begin{matrix}    {} & {{N}_{2}}+ & 3{{H}_{2}}\rightleftharpoons  & 2N{{H}_{3}}  \\    \text{at}\,\,\text{equilibrium} & 2M & 3M & {}  \\ \end{matrix}\] From the law of mass-action, \[{{K}_{c}}=\frac{{{[N{{H}_{3}}]}^{2}}}{{{[{{H}_{2}}]}^{3}}\,[{{N}_{2}}]}\] \[2.37\times {{10}^{-3}}=\frac{{{[N{{H}_{3}}]}^{2}}}{{{(3)}^{2}}(2)}\] \[\therefore \]  \[{{[N{{H}_{3}}]}^{2}}=2.37\times {{10}^{-3}}\times 27\times 2=0.127\] \[\therefore \]  \[[N{{H}_{3}}]=0.3577\approx 0.358\,M\]
