For the decomposition reaction `NH_(2)COONH_(4)(s) hArr2NH_(3)(g)+CO_(2)(g)`, the `K_(p)=3.2xx10^(-5)atm^(3)`. The total pressure of gases at equilibrium when `1.0` mol of `NH_(2)COONH_(4)(s)` was taken to start with will be:A. `0.25atm`B. `0.12atm`C. `0.04atm`D. `0.06atm`

Answer» Correct Answer - D
We have
`NH_(2)COONH_(4)(S)hArr2NH_(3)(g)+CO_(2)(g)hArr2NH_(3)(g)+CO_(2)(g)`
`K_(p)+(2p)^(2)p=4p^(3)=3.2xx10^(-5)atm^(3)`
This gives
`p=2xx10^(-2)atm`
`p_(total)=2p+p=3p=6xx10^(-2)atm`
