A container contains 0.2mol of CO2 and 0.1molH2 and establish following equilibrium. CO2(g)+H2(g)⇌CO(g)+H2O(g). At equlibrium H2O is found to be 25% by mol. The equilibrium constant Kp for the reaction is

Solution
Given, CO2(g)+H2(g)⇌CO(g)+H2O(g)0.20.1000.2−x0.1−xxx According to the question,x0.3×100=25⇒x=0.075 or 3/40 So,Kp=x2(0.2−x)(0.1−x)=(3/40)21/8×1/40=1.8
