Chapter 12, Problem 94CWP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The equilibrium constant in terms of partial pressure for the decomposition of ${\text{NH}}_4{\text{Cl}}_{\left(s\right)}$ is to be calculated.

Concept introduction: The equilibrium constant $K_{\text{p}}$ describes the ratio of the reactant to the product on the equilibrium conditions in terms of partial pressure.

The equilibrium constant depends upon temperature.

Law of mass action is applicable on the equilibrium reactions.

To determine: The value of the equilibrium constant in terms of partial pressure for the decomposition of ${\text{NH}}_{\text{4}}{\text{Cl}}_{\left(s\right)}$.
