Question

Kp for the reaction NH4I(s)NH3(g)+HI(g) is 1/4 at a particular temperature . Above equilibrium is established by taking 4 moles of NH4I in 100 litre container, then moles of NH4I(s) left in the container at equilibrium is:[TakeR=1/12Lt.atmmol1K1]

Solution

According to the problem:
Let us consider the relation of Kp and Kc is,
Kp=Kc=(RT)Δ
where,
Δn=2
R=0.082
T=298
putting the given values,
14=Kc(0.082×298)2
implies that
Kc=0.00042
For reaction
NH4I(s)NH3(g)+HI(g)
0.0400
x+x+x
0.04xxx
kc=[NH3][HI][NH4I]
implies that
0.0042=x2(0.04x)
x2+0.00042x0.000016g=0
x=0.004
At equilibrium, concentration of 0.040.004=0.036M
left=0.04-0.004=0.036M.
Moles of NH4I left=concentration×volume
0.036×100=3.6moles
Hence
3.6 moles of NH4I are left.
