In which of the following equilibrium K_C and K_ P are not equal ?

In which of the following equilibrium KC\mathrm{K}_C and KP\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{P}} are not equal ?

Options

  1. A2NO(g)⇌N2( g)+O2( g)2 \mathrm{NO}(\mathrm{g}) \rightleftharpoons \mathrm{N}_2(\mathrm{~g})+\mathrm{O}_2(\mathrm{~g})
  2. BSO2( g)+NO2( g)⇌SO3( g)+NO(g)\mathrm{SO}_2(\mathrm{~g})+\mathrm{NO}_2(\mathrm{~g}) \rightleftharpoons \mathrm{SO}_3(\mathrm{~g})+\mathrm{NO}(\mathrm{g})
  3. CH2( g)+\mathrm{H}_2(\mathrm{~g})+\mathrm{I}2( g)⇌2HI(g)_2(\mathrm{~g}) \rightleftharpoons 2 \mathrm{HI}(\mathrm{g})
  4. D2C(s)+O2( g)⇌2CO2( g)2 \mathrm{C}(\mathrm{s})+\mathrm{O}_2(\mathrm{~g}) \rightleftharpoons 2 \mathrm{CO}_2(\mathrm{~g})

Correct answer

D. 2C(s)+O2( g)⇌2CO2( g)2 \mathrm{C}(\mathrm{s})+\mathrm{O}_2(\mathrm{~g}) \rightleftharpoons 2 \mathrm{CO}_2(\mathrm{~g})

Step-by-step solution

Key Idea The reaction for which the number of moles of gaseous products (np\left(n_{\mathrm{p}}\right. ) is not equal to the number of moles of gaseous reactants \left(\mathbf{n}_{\mathrm{R}}\right),hasdifferentvalueof, has different value of\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{c}} and \mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{p}}.(a). (a)\boldsymbol{n}_{\mathrm{P}}=\mathbf{n}_{\mathrm{R}}=2,thus,, thus,\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{p}}=\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{c}}(b)(b)\mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{P}}=\mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{R}}=2,thus,, thus,K_{\mathrm{p}}=\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{c}}(c)(c)\mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{P}}=\mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{R}}=2,thus,, thus,\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{p}}=\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{c}}(d)(d)n_p=2, n_R=1,thus,, thus,K_p \neq K_c
