Question

At a given temperature and pressure, the equilibrium constant values for the equilibria

3A₂ + B₂ + 2C \(\overset{K_1}{⇌}\) 2A₃BC and A₃BC \(\overset{K_2}{⇌}\) 3/2 [A₂] + 1/2 [B₂] + C

The relation between K₁ and K₂ is

\((a)\,\,\,K_1=\frac{1}{\sqrt K_2}\)

\((b)\,\,\,K_2=K_1^{-1/2}\)

\((C)\,\,K_1^{2}=2K_2\)

\((d)\,\,\, \frac{K_1}{2}=K_2\)

Answer 1

\((b)\,\,\,K_2=K_1^{-1/2}\)
