Question

At 311 K, this reaction has a K c value of 0.0111 . X ( g ) + 2 Y ( g ) − ⇀ ↽ − 2 Z ( g ) Calculate K p at 311 K. Note that the pressure is in units of atmosphere (atm).

Answer 1

Answer:

$K_{p}=4.35\times 10^{-4}$

Explanation:

We know, $K_{p}=K_{c}(RT)^{\Delta n}$

where, R = 0.0821 L.atm/(mol.K), T is temperature in kelvin and $\Delta n$ is difference in sum of stoichiometric coefficient of products and reactants

Here $\Delta n=(2)-(2+1)=-1$ and T = 311 K

So, $K_{p}=(0.0111)\times [(0.0821L.atm.mol^{-1}.K^{-1})\times 311K]^{-1}=4.35\times 10^{-4}$

Hence value of equilibrium constant in terms of partial pressure $(K_{p})$ is $4.35\times 10^{-4}$
