Two solids dissociated as follows
A(s)⇌B(g)+C(g);KP1=xatm2
D(s)⇌C(g)+E(g);KP2=xatm2
The total pressure when both the solids dissociate simultaneously is:2(√x+y)
A(s)⇌B(g)P1+C(g)P1
D(s)⇌C(g)P2+E(g)P2
C,PC=P1+P2
KP1=x=PB⋅PC......(1)
x=P1(P1+P2)
KP2=y=PC⋅PE......(2)
y=(P1+P2)(P2)
x+y=(P1+P2)2
PT=PC+PB+PE
=(P1+P2)+P1+P2=2(P1+P2)
PT=2(√x+y)
