Answer: The value of the equilibrium constant for this reaction is 0.37

Explanation:

Equilibrium constant is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each raised to the power their stoichiometric ratios. It is expressed as [tex]K_c[/tex]  

For the given chemical reaction:

[tex]N_2(g)+2H_2O(g)\rightarrow 2NO(g)+2H_2(g)[/tex]

The expression for [tex]K_c[/tex] is written as:

[tex]K_c=\frac{[NO]^2\times [H_2]^2}{[H_2O]^2\times [N_2]^1}[/tex]

[tex]K_c=\frac{(0.33)^2\times (1.2)^2}{(1.3)^2\times (0.25)^1}[/tex]

[tex]K_c=0.37[/tex]

Thus the value of the equilibrium constant for this reaction is 0.37
