(b) $K _1 K _2=3$

(c) $K _2=K _1^{-3}$

(d) $K _1 K _2=\frac{1}{3}$

Show Answer

Solution:

  1. We know that, the relationship between $K _p$ and $K _C$ of a chemical equilibrium state (reaction) is

$$ K _p=K _C(R T)^{\Delta n _g} \Rightarrow \frac{K _p}{K _C}=(R T)^{\Delta n _g} $$

where, $\quad \Delta n _g=\Sigma n _{\text {Products }}-\Sigma n _{\text {Reactants }}$

(i) $\quad N _2(g)+O _2(g) \rightleftharpoons 2 NO(g)$

$$ \Rightarrow \quad(R T)^{2-(1+1)}=(R T)^{0}=1 $$

(ii) $\quad N _2 O _4(g) \rightleftharpoons 2 NO _2(g)$

$$ \Rightarrow \quad(R T)^{2-1}=R T=24.62 dm^{3} atmmol^{-1} $$

(iii) $\quad N _2(g)+3 H _2(g) \rightleftharpoons 2 NH _3(g)$

$\Rightarrow(R T)^{2-(3+1)}=(R T)^{-2}$

$$ \begin{aligned} & =\frac{1}{\left(24.62 dm^{3} atm mol^{-1}\right)^{2}} \ & =1.649 \times 10^{-3} dm^{-6} atm^{-2} mol^{2} \end{aligned} $$
