Answer: The approximate equilibrium partial pressure of $H_2S$ is 3.92 atm

Explanation:

Equilibrium constant is the ratio of the concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each term raised to its stochiometric coefficients.

The given balanced equilibrium reaction is,

$2H_2S(g)\rightleftharpoons 2H_2(g)+S_2(g)$
