Answer

The molar concentration of $NOBr$ is $1.4 \space M$

Work Step by Step

1. Write the equilibrium constant expression: $$K_c = \frac{[Products]}{[Reactants]} = \frac{[ NO ]^{ 2 }[ Br_2 ]}{[ NOBr ]^{ 2 }}$$ 2. Solve for the missing concentration: $$ [NOBr] = \sqrt[2]{\frac{[ NO ]^{ 2 }[ Br_2 ]}{ K_c}}$$ 3. Evaluate the expression: $$ [NOBr] = \sqrt[2]{\frac{( 2.0 )^{ 2 }( 1.0 )}{(2.0)}}$$ $$[NOBr] = 1.4 \space M$$
