Question

Two solid compounds $X$ and $Y$ dissociates at a certain temperature as follows:
$X (s) ⇌ A (g) + 2 B (g); K_{P_{1}} = {9 \times 10}^{- 3} {a t m}^{3}$
$Y (s) ⇌ 2 B (g) + C (g); K_{P_{2}} = {4.5 \times 10}^{- 3} {a t m}^{3}$
The total pressure of gases over a mixture of $X$ and $Y$ is:

Solution

The correct option is B $0.45$ atm
$X (s) ⇌ A (g) + 2 B (g); K_{P_{1}} = {9 \times 10}^{- 3} {a t m}^{3}$ ......(1)
$Y (s) ⇌ 2 B (g) + C (g); K_{P_{2}} = {4.5 \times 10}^{- 3} {a t m}^{3}$ ......(2)
Add reactions (1) and (2)
$X (s) + Y (s) ⇌ A (g) + 4 B (g) + C (g)$
$K_{P} = K_{P_{1}} \times K_{P_{2}} = {9 \times 10}^{- 3} {a t m}^{3} \times {4.5 \times 10}^{- 3} {a t m}^{3}$
Let P be the pressure of A.
The pressures of B and C will be 4P and P respectively.
Hence, the expression for the equilibrium constant will be $K_{P} = P_{A} \times P_{B}^{4} \times P_{C}$
Substitute values in the above expression.
$P \times (4 P)^{4} \times P = 9 \times 4.5 \times 10^{- 3} \times 10^{- 3}$
$P = 0.0735$
$6 P = 6 \times 0.0735 = 0.45 a t m$
Hence, the total pressure of gases over a mixture of X and Y is 0.45 atm.
