Questions and Answers

The ratio $\frac{K_P}{K_C}$ for the reaction: $CO_{(g)} + \frac{1}{2}O_{2(g)} \rightleftharpoons CO_{2(g)}$ is:

  • $\frac{1}{\sqrt{RT}}$ (correct)
  • 1
  • RT
  • $(RT)^{1/2}$

Flashcards

K P

The ratio of partial pressures of products to reactants at equilibrium.

K C

The ratio of molar concentrations of products to reactants at equilibrium.

K P and K C Relation

K P = K C(RT)^\Delta n, where \Delta n is the change in moles of gas.

Calculating Δn

In the reaction CO(g) + 1/2 O2(g) ⇌ CO2(g), calculate the change in the number of moles of gas (Δn).

\Delta n for given reaction

For the reaction: CO(g) + 1/2 O2(g) ⇌ CO2(g), Δn = 1 - (1 + 1/2) = -1/2.

Study Notes

  • The question pertains to JEE Main 2025 exam for Chemistry.
  • It gives 4 marks for a correct answer and -1 for a wrong answer.
  • The question asks about the ratio of Kp/Kc.
  • The reaction is: CO(g) + 1/2 O2(g) <=> CO2(g)

Finding Kp/Kc

  • Kp/Kc = (RT)^Δn
  • Δn is the change in the number of moles of gas.
  • Δn = (moles of gaseous products) - (moles of gaseous reactants)
  • Δn = 1 - (1 + 1/2) = 1 - 3/2 = -1/2
  • Kp/Kc = (RT)^(-1/2) = 1 / √(RT)
