Question

At 675K, H2(g) and CO2(g) react to form CO(g) and H2O(g), Kp for the reaction is 0.16. If a mixture of 0.25 mole of H2(g) and 0.25 mol of CO2 is heated at 675K, mole % of CO(g) in equilibrium mixture is:

Solution

The correct option is B 14.28
We know that KP=KC(RT)Δn
here, Δn=nProductnreactant
=22=0
KP=KC
KC=0.16
H2+CO2CO+H2O
t=0 0.25 0.25 0 0
At eqm 0.25x 0.25x x x
Total number of moles at eqm= 0.25x+0.25x+x+x=0.50
now, KC=[CO][H2O][H2][CO2]
0.16=x2(0.25x)2
0.4=x0.25xx=14
Moles of CO=14
mole % of CO=moles of COtotal moles×1000=114×0.50×100=14.28
