Chemistry Question on Equilibrium
In a closed cylinder of capacity 24.6L, the following reaction occurs at 27∘C. A2(s)⇌B2(s)+2C(g) At equilibrium, 1g of B2(s) (molar mass =50gmol−1 ) is present. The equilibrium constant Kp for the equilibrium in atm 2 unit is (R=0.082LatmK−1mol−1)
A
1.6×10−2
B
1.6×10−5
C
1.6×10−3
D
1.6×10−4
Answer
1.6×10−3
Explanation
Solution
Equilibrium concentration of B2,
[B2]equilibrium = molar mass × volume mass
=50×24.01=8.13×10−4
For the reaction,
∴[C]=2×8.13×10−4=1.63×10−3
Kc=[C]2=[1.63×10−3]2=2.66×10−6
Again from, Kp=KC(KT)Δny
Here, Δng=2−0=2
Kp=2.66×10−6×(0.082×300)2
≈1.6×10−3
