Equilibrium constants K1 and K2 for the following equilibria are
NO(g) + 0.5O2(g) →K1 NO2(g) and 2NO2(g) →K2 2NO(g) + O2(g)
K2 = 1/K1
K2 = K12
K2 = (K1)/2
K2 = 1/K12
K1 = [NO2][NO][O2]0.5 and
K2 = [NO]2[O2][NO2]2
Or K2 = 1K21
Two gaseous equilibria SO2(g) + 0.5O2(g) ⇌ SO3(g) and
2SO3(g) ⇌ 2SO2(g) + O2(g) have equilibrium constants K1 and K2 respectively
at 298K. Which of the following relationships between K1 and K2 is correct
For the two gaseous reactions (i) and (ii), at 25∘C
(i) NO(g)+12O2(g)⇌NO2(g)
(ii) 2NO2(g)⇌2NO(g)+O2(g),
The equilibrium constants are K1 and K2 respectively are related as:
