Equilibrium

Question
CBSEENCH11006414

For the equilibrium
2 NOC l left parenthesis straight g right parenthesis space space space space rightwards harpoon over leftwards harpoon space space space space 2 NO left parenthesis straight g right parenthesis space plus space Cl subscript 2 left parenthesis straight g right parenthesis
the value of the constant, Kis 3.75 space cross times space 10 to the power of negative 6 end exponent space at space 1069 space straight K. Calculate straight K subscript straight p for the reaction at this temperature.
    

Solution

We know
                     straight K subscript straight p space equals space straight K subscript straight c left parenthesis RT right parenthesis to the power of increment straight n end exponent                  ...(1)

     Here space increment straight n space equals space straight n subscript straight p space minus space straight n subscript straight r space equals space left parenthesis 2 plus 1 right parenthesis minus 2 space equals space 1
space space space space space space space space straight K subscript straight c space equals space 3.75 space cross times space 10 to the power of negative 6 end exponent
space space space space space space space space space straight T space equals space 1069
            straight R space equals 0.0831 space bar space straight L space mol to the power of negative 1 end exponent straight K to the power of negative 1 end exponent
Putting the values in expression (1), we have
   
    straight K subscript straight p space equals space left parenthesis 3.75 space cross times space 10 to the power of negative 6 end exponent right parenthesis space left parenthesis 0.0831 right parenthesis cross times left parenthesis 1069 right parenthesis
space space space space equals space 0.033
