You can use the periodic table to help you understand why some atoms form molecules while others do not. Argon and chlorine are both nonmetals. Argon exists in nature as individual argon atoms. Chlorine exists in nature as two chlorine atoms covalently bonded to each other. Why does this occur?

Ammonia and oxygen react to form nitrogen monoxide and water, like this: 4nh3 (g) + 5o2 (g) → 4no (g) + 6h2o (g) also, a chemist finds that at a certain temperature the equilibrium mixture of ammonia, oxygen, nitrogen monoxide, and water has the following composition: compound pressure at equilibrium nh3 65.1atm o2 31.3atm no 62.7atm h2o 65.8atm compound pressure at equilibrium nh3 65.3 atm o2 7.79 atm no 12.1 atm h2o 65.8 atm calculate the value of the equilibrium constant kp for this reaction. round your answer to 2 significant
