Solution
 H2(g) + F2(g) ? 2HF(g)
  The equilibrium constant K can be calculated as:
  K = [HF]^2/{ [H2]*[F2] } = 0.4^2/(0.05*0.01) = 320
 
  After the addition of 0.330 mole of F2, the F2 concentrationbecomes (before reaction):
  [F2] = 0.330mol /5.00L + 0.0100 M = 0.0760M
  Assume an additional X(M) of [F2] will be converted to HF at thenew equilibrium. Thus the new concentration of HF is: [HF] =(0.400+2X) M.
  ...........H2(g) + F2(g) ? 2HF(g), K = 320
  Initial: 0.0500..0.0760...0.400
  Final: 0.05-X...0.07-X...0.4+2*X
  K = 320 = (0.4+2*X)^2 /((0.05-X)*(0.07-X))
  or: (0.4+2*X)^2 = 320*(0.05-X)*(0.07-X)
  0.16+1.6*X+4*X^2 = 320*(0.0035-0.12*X+X^2)
  316*X^2-40*X+0.96 = 0
  The solutions to this quadratic equation are:
  X1=0.0944 (to be omitted. Do you see why?)
  X2 = 0.0322 (M)
  So finally:
  [H2] = 0.0178M
  [F2] = 0.0378M
  [HF] = 0.4644M
