For a gaseous homogeneous reaction at equilibrium, number of moles of products are greater than the number of moles of reactants. Is K_C is larger or smaller than K_P ?

Answer»

Solution :For a homogeneous reaction at equilibrium, number of MOLES of products `(n_p)` are GREATER than the number of moles of reactants `(n_R)`, then `Deltan_g = + ve`
`n_P gt n_R`
`:. Deltan_g = +ve `
If `Deltan_g` is + ve, `K_P` VALUE is greater then `K_C`
`K_P = K_C. (RT)^(+ve)`
`:.K_P gt K_C`
Example :`PCl_5 (g) HARR PCl_3(g) + Cl_2(g)`
` 2 - 1 = 1`
`:.K_P = K_C(RT)^1`
`K_P gt K_C`
