Chemistry Question on Equilibrium
For the reaction, C(s)+CO2(g)→2CO(g), Kp=63 atm at 1000K. If at equilibrium PCO=10Pco2, than the total pressure of the gases at equilibrium is
A
6.3 atm
B
6.93 atm
C
0.63 atm
D
0.693 atm
Answer
6.93 atm
Explanation
Solution
Kp=PCO2pCO2 63 = l00x or x = 0.63
Total equilibrium pressure = 6.3 + 0.63 = 6.93 atm
