Consider the following equilibrium: N2O4(g) 2 NO2(g) Thermodynamic data on these gases are given in Appendix

Question:

Consider the following equilibrium:
N2O4(g) ⇆ 2 NO2(g)
Thermodynamic data on these gases are given in Appendix C. You may assume that ΔH° and ΔS° do not vary with temperature.
(a) At what temperature will an equilibrium mixture contain equal amounts of the two gases?
(b) At what temperature will an equilibrium mixture of 1 atm total pressure contain twice as much NO2 as N2O4?
(c) At what temperature will an equilibrium mixture of 10 atm total pressure contain twice as much NO2 as N2O4?
(d) Rationalize the results from parts (b) and (c) by using Le Châtelier's principle.
