The equilibrium of 2H 2 O(g) 2H 2 (g) + O 2 (g) at 2,000 K has a Keq value of 5.31 x 10-10. What is the Keq expression for this system? (Enter subscripts after the letters: for example, H2O = Hs2O. Also, don't forget to use proper chemical shorthand for chemical symbols. For instance, chlorine = Cl but not cl or cL.)

Answer is: Keq expression for this system is Keq = [O₂ ] · [H₂]² ÷ [H₂O]².
Chemical reaction: 2H
₂O(g) ⇄ O₂(g) + 2H₂(g).
The equilibrium constant (Keq) is a ratio of the concentration of the products (in this reaction oxygen and hydrogen) to the concentration of the reactants (in this reaction water).
