If the equilibrium constant of the reaction 2HIH2 + I2 is 0.25, then the equilibrium constant of the reaction H2 + I2 ⇌ 2HI would be

A

1.0

B

2.0

C

3.0

D

4.0

Answer

4.0

Explanation

Solution

KcK _ { c } for the IInd reaction is reverse of Ist for reaction

is 0.25Kc0.25 K _ { c } ^ { \prime } for reaction,

Kc=1Kc=10.25=4K _ { c } ^ { \prime } = \frac { 1 } { K _ { c } } = \frac { 1 } { 0.25 } = 4.
