Need a Thermochem Genius!
« on: July 17, 2011, 06:25:02 PM »
This question has stumped me. I have tried everything I can think of, but alas I cannot determine the right answer. If anyone can help, it'd be much appreciated!

Consider the reaction: X2 (g) :rarrow: 2X (g) . When a vessel initially containing 774 torr of X2  comes to equilibrium at 298K , the equilibrium partial pressure of X is 95.0 . The same reaction is repeated with an initial partial pressure of 795 torr of X2  at 720 K ; the equilibrium partial pressure of X is 523 torr .
Find change in enthalpy (delta H) for reaction.

Can you find the equilibrium constants at either temperature? If so, do you know any relationships between equilibrium constants are different temperatures?
