Chapter 12, Problem 78QAP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The given relation needs to be derived.

$K=K_{C}R{T}^{\Delta n_g}$

Concept introduction:

For a general equilibrium reaction as follows:

$\text{A}\left(g\right)+\text{B}\left(g\right)\rightleftharpoons \text{C}\left(g\right)+\text{D}\left(g\right)$

The expression for the equilibrium constant is represented as follows:

$K=\frac{\left(P_C\right)\left(P_D\right)}{\left(P_A\right)\left(P_B\right)}$

Here, to calculate the equilibrium constant, the values of partial pressure of all the species in reactant and product side are required.
