Equilibrium Constant help

I know this is probably a really easy question, just can't seem to find the concentration of D in the below question. (This is question 4., page 226 from the StudyON Chemistry 2 book)

any help? :D

I work this question this way:

particle C's concentration decreases by 0.5 mole, its mole ratio with d is 1:2, therefore D should be decreased by 0.5x2 = 1 mole.
So, concentration of C=1.5M, concentration of D=2(initial)-1= 1 M

now let's look at the reactants,
Particle B has the same mole ratio as particle C, therefore it should increase by 0.5M while particle C decreases by 0.5M. Particle A has the mole ratio of 2:1 with particle B, therefore particle A should increase its conc by 0.5x2=1M
So, concentration of A=2+1=3M, concentration of B=2+0.5=2.5M

now use the ratio to work it out, do you get the correct answer? =P

EDIT: 0.07 is it?

(a) V = 3.0 L so
[H2] = 0.31.1 = 0.37 mol L–1
[HI] = 0.33.3 = 1.1 mol L–1
K = use the formula = 49 therefore
 [I2] = 0.067 mol L–1

the solution said 0.5 which would be wrong

Grr hate wrong solutions...can frustrate you for long amounts of time just trying to find what you did wrong and doing the question 3 times over
