Chapter 17.8, Problem 8PE

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The value of $K_{\text{p}}$ at $298\text{K}$ and $2000\text{K}$ is to be calculated.

Concept introduction: The $K_{\text{p}}$ value gives information regarding reaction quotient at equilibrium stage. It is calculated by the formula,

$K_{\text{p}}=e^{-\Delta G_{\text{rxn}}/RT}$

To determine: The magnitude of $K_{\text{p}}$ at $298\text{K}$.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: The magnitude of $K_{\text{p}}$ at $2000\text{K}$.
