For the reaction, H2(g)+CO2(g)⇋CO(g)+H2O(g), if the initial concentration of [H2]=[CO2]=1 and x mol/litre of H2 is consumed at equilibrium, the correct expression of Kp is:
Explanation:
H2(g)+CO2⇌CO+H2O(g)
Initial concentration: 1 1 0 0
At equilibrium: (1−x) (1−x) x x
KP=PCO×PH2OPH2PCO2=x×x(1−x)×(1−x)=x2(1−x)2
Hence the correct answer is option A.
