In which of the following equilibria, K_ p and K_ c are NOT equal?

In which of the following equilibria, Kp\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{p}} and Kc\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{c}} are NOT equal?

Options

  1. AH2( g)+\mathrm{H}_{2(\mathrm{~g})}+\mathrm{I}2( g)⇌2HI(g)_{2(\mathrm{~g})} \rightleftharpoons 2 \mathrm{HI}_{(\mathrm{g})}
  2. BCO(g)+H2O(g)⇌CO2( g)+H2( g)\mathrm{CO}_{(\mathrm{g})}+\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}_{(\mathrm{g})} \rightleftharpoons \mathrm{CO}_{2(\mathrm{~g})}+\mathrm{H}_{2(\mathrm{~g})}
  3. C2BrCl(g)⇌Br2( g)+Cl2( g)\quad 2 \mathrm{BrCl}_{(\mathrm{g})} \rightleftharpoons \mathrm{Br}_{2(\mathrm{~g})}+\mathrm{Cl}_{2(\mathrm{~g})}
  4. DPCl5( g)⇌PCl3( g)+Cl2( g)\mathrm{PCl}_{5(\mathrm{~g})} \rightleftharpoons \mathrm{PCl}_{3(\mathrm{~g})}+\mathrm{Cl}_{2(\mathrm{~g})}

Correct answer

D. PCl5( g)⇌PCl3( g)+Cl2( g)\mathrm{PCl}_{5(\mathrm{~g})} \rightleftharpoons \mathrm{PCl}_{3(\mathrm{~g})}+\mathrm{Cl}_{2(\mathrm{~g})}

Step-by-step solution

Kp=Kc(RT)Δng for Kp≠KcΔng≠0Δng=np−nr\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{p}}=\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{c}}(\mathrm{RT})^{\Delta \mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{g}}} \\ & \text{ for } \mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{p}} \neq \mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{c}} \\ & \qquad \Delta \mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{g}} \neq 0 \\ & \Delta \mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{g}}=\mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{p}}-\mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{r}} \end{aligned} (1) Δng=2−2=0\Delta \mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{g}}=2-2=0 (2) Δngg=2−2=0\Delta \mathrm{ng}_{\mathrm{g}}=2-2=0 (3) Δngg=2−2=0\Delta \mathrm{ng}_{\mathrm{g}}=2-2=0 (4) Δngg=2−1=1\Delta \mathrm{ng}_{\mathrm{g}}=2-1=1
