Answer: The value of the equilibrium constant Kp for this reaction is [tex]3.3\times 10^3[/tex]
Explanation:
Equilibrium constant is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each raised to the power their stoichiometric ratios. It is expressed as K
For the given balanced chemical reaction:
[tex]4NH_3(g)+5O_2(g)\rightarrow 4NO(g)+6H_2O(g)[/tex]
The expression for [tex]K_p[/tex] is written as:
[tex]K_p=\frac{[p_{NO}]^4\times [p_{H_2O}]^6}{[p_{NH_3}]^4\times [p_{O_2}]^5}[/tex]
[tex]K_p=\frac{(12.1)^4\times (65.8)^6}{(65.3)^4\times (7.79)^5}[/tex]
[tex]K_p=3.3\times 10^3[/tex]
The value of the equilibrium constant Kp for this reaction is [tex]3.3\times 10^3[/tex]
