For the reaction, the equilibrium constant equation will be:

Kc = [NO₂]² / [N₂O₄]
Kc = (0.5)² / 0.025
Kc = 10

The answer is C.

Answer: c) 10.0

Explanation:

The balanced equilibrium reaction will be,

[tex]N_2O_4(g)\rightleftharpoons 2NO_2(g)[/tex]

Concentration of [tex]NO_2[/tex] at equilibrium = 0.500 M

Concentration of [tex]N_2O_4[/tex] at equilibrium = 0.0250 M

The expression for equilibrium reaction will be,

[tex]K_{eq}=\frac{[NO_2]^2}{[N_2O_4]}[/tex]

Now put all the given values in this expression:

[tex]K_{eq}=\frac{(0.500)^2}{(0.0250)}[/tex]

[tex]K_{eq}=10.0[/tex]

Therefore, the equilibrium constant is 10.0.
