Answer» Correct Answer - A `K_p=K_c(RT)^(Deltan_g)` where `Deltan_g=(n_(gas, pro d))-(n_(gas, react))` `K_pgtK_c` when `Deltan_g` is positive. This is true for reaction (1) only. `Deltan_g=(2+1)-(2)` `=1` Note that `Deltan_g` refers to the number of moles of gaseous substances in the balanced equation not in the reaction vessel. For reactions (2) and (4), `Deltan_g` is `-ve`. Thus, `K_p lt K_c`. For reaction (3), `Deltan_g` is zero. Thus, `K_p=K_c`. |
