Solution
The correct option is D 0.016 The equilibrium reaction is 2H2S(g)⇔2H2(g)+S2(g).
The expression for the equilibrium constant is Kc=[H2]2[S2][H2S]2
The number of moles of H2S,H2andS2 in the equilibrium mixture are 1,0.2and0.8 respectively.
The volume of the flask is 2 L.
Hence, the molar concentrations of H2S,H2 and S2 in the equilibrium mixture are 0.5,0.1and0.4 respectively.
Substitute the values in the expression for the equilibrium constant. Kc=(0.1)2×0.4(0.5)2=0.016
