3Fe (s) +4H2O(g) ⇌ Fe3O4 (s) + 4H2 (g)
Chemical Equilibrium
where,
R = gas constant (0,082 L atm/ K mol)
T = temperature (K)
Δn = the number of product coefficients - the number of
reactant coefficients
At a temperature of 27°C in a room with a pressure of 1 atm there is
N2O4 gas which breaks down into NO2 according to the reaction:
N2O4 (g) ⇄ 2NO2 (g)
R = 0.082 and the value of Kp = 0.489 atm, then the value of Kc at
that temperature is 0.02
Δn = 2 - 1

Le Chatelier’s Principle
n 3. Pressure:
Decreasing the volume shifts the equilibrium
toward the side with bigger moles.
n 4. Volume
Decreasing the volume shifts the equilibrium
toward the side with fewer moles.
