Question

At constant temperature. the equilibrium constant (K_p) for the decornposition reaction N₂O₄ ⇋2NO₂, is expressed by K_p = (4x²p)/(1 - x²), where p = pressure, r = extent of decomposition. Which one of the following statement is true? 

(a) K. increases with increase of p 

(b) K, increases with increase of x 

(c) K, increases with decrease of x 

(d) .K_p remains constant with change in p and x

Answer 1

The correct option (d) K_p remains constant with change in p and x

Explanation:

K_p is not based upon pressure and concentration.
