Question

At a given temperature a system containing O2(g) and some oxides of nitrogen can be described by the following reactions:
2NO(g)+O2(g)⇌2NO2(g)Kp=104 2NO2(g)⇌N2O4(g)Kp=0.10
A pressure of 1 atm of N2O4(g) is placed in a container at this temperature.
Part A
Predict which, if any component (other than  N2O4 ) will be present at a pressure greater than 0.2 atm at equilibrium.
