Identify the chemical reaction involved: 2 PbO2(s) ⇌ 2 PbO(s) + O2(g). This is a decomposition reaction where lead(IV) oxide decomposes into lead(II) oxide and oxygen gas.
Understand the concept of equilibrium: At equilibrium, the rate of the forward reaction equals the rate of the reverse reaction, and the concentrations of reactants and products remain constant.
Consider the conditions given: Both vessels are heated to 400°C, which is above the decomposition temperature of PbO2, allowing the reaction to proceed until equilibrium is reached.
Recognize that the partial pressure of a gas at equilibrium depends on the equilibrium constant and the initial conditions. Since both vessels are sealed and contain the same substance, the equilibrium constant for the reaction will be the same in both vessels.
Conclude that if the initial amounts of PbO2 are the same in both vessels, the partial pressure of O2(g) at equilibrium will be the same in both vessels, as the equilibrium position is determined by the same reaction conditions and equilibrium constant.

주요 개념

질문에 올바르게 답하기 위해 반드시 이해해야 하는 핵심 개념들은 다음과 같습니다.

Le Chatelier's Principle

Le Chatelier's Principle states that if a dynamic equilibrium is disturbed by changing the conditions, the position of equilibrium shifts to counteract the change. In the context of the decomposition of lead(IV) oxide, increasing the temperature will favor the endothermic reaction, shifting the equilibrium to produce more O2 gas.

Equilibrium Constant (K)

The equilibrium constant (K) is a numerical value that expresses the ratio of the concentrations of products to reactants at equilibrium for a given reaction at a specific temperature. For the decomposition of PbO2, the K value will change with temperature, affecting the concentrations of PbO and O2 in the sealed vessels.

Partial Pressure

Partial pressure is the pressure exerted by a single component of a gas mixture. In the context of the question, the partial pressure of O2 in both vessels A and B will depend on the amount of O2 produced at equilibrium, which should be the same if both vessels are identical and reach the same equilibrium state at 400°C.
