Solution

The correct option is D
$\frac{α^{3} P}{2}$

$2 A B_{2} \to 2 A B + B_{2}$
$1 - α$ $α$ $\frac{α}{2}$
Total moles $= 1 - α + α + \frac{α}{2} = \frac{2 + α}{2}$
$P_{A B_{2}} = \frac{(1 - α) P}{\frac{(2 + α)}{2}} = \frac{2 (1 - α) P}{(2 + α)} : P_{A B} = \frac{α P}{\frac{(2 + α)}{2}} = \frac{2 α P}{2 + α}; P_{B_{2}} = \frac{\frac{α}{2} P}{\frac{(2 + α)}{2}} = \frac{α P}{2 + α} H e n c e, K_{P} = \frac{P_{A B}^{2} P_{B_{2}}}{P_{A B_{2}}^{2}} = \frac{(\frac{2 α P}{2 + α})^{2}}{[\frac{2 (1 - α) P}{2 + α}]^{2}}$
$= \frac{α^{3} P}{2}$ $(α << 1)$
