Question

For the reaction :

2NO2(g)2NO(g)+O2(g),(Kc=1.8×106 at 184oC)(R=0.082Latm/(mol.K)

When Kp and Kc are compared at 184oC, it is found that

A

Solution

The correct option is D Kp is greater than Kc
For the reaction :
2NO2(g)2NO(g)+O2(g)

Given:
Kc=1.8×106 at 184oC

Δn=32=1

R=0.082Latm/mol.K

T=1840C=184+273=457K

Kp=Kc(RT)Δn

Kp=1.8×106×0.082×457=6.836×105
Hence it is clear that Kp>Kc
