Solution

The correct option is A

1.886


The equilibrium is represented as:

A2(g)+B2(g)2AB(g)

Initial connection

1 2 0

moles at equilibrium

1-x 2-x 2x

Total volume = 1 + 2 = 3 litres

[A2]=1x3,[B2]=2x3[AB]=2x3

K=[AB]2[A2][B2]=(2X3)(1x3)(2x3)=50

On solving we get 23x275x+50=0

x = 2.31 or 0.943, since x can't be more than 1

so, x = 0.943

moles of AB formed =2×0.943=1.886
