Dinitrogen tetraoxide, a colorless gas, exists in equilibrium with nitrogen dioxide, a reddish brown gas. One way to represent this equilibrium is: 2NO2(g)N2O4(g) We could also write this reaction three other ways, listed below. The equilibrium constants for all of the reactions are related. Write the equilibrium constant for each new reaction in terms of K, the equilibrium constant for the reaction above. 1) 1/2 N2O4(g) NO2(g) K1

substituting a hydrogen atom with a halogen in a hydrocarbon:

- the single bond remains single. a is wrong.

- the bond with hydrogen is as strong as with a halogen. c is wrong

- a hydrocarbon is saturated if there is no double bond. we do not know that so d is wrong.

- carbon will always have four valence electrons. e is wrong.

by elimination, the correct answer is b. the boiling point of the new compound increases.
