The equilibrium constant, Kp, for the following reaction is 280. at 150.°C. Suppose that a quantity of IBr is placed in a closed reaction vessel and the system is allowed to come to equilibrium at 150.°C. When equilibrium is established, the pressure of IBr is 0.200 atm. What is the pressure of I2 at equilibrium?
