Q.

The equilibrium constants of the following are

N2+3H22NH3;K1

N2+O22NO;K2

H2+12O2H2O;K3

The equilibrium constant (K) of the reaction:

2NH3+52O2k2NO+3H2O  will be                         [2017, 2007, 2003]

1 K2K33K1  
2 K2K3K1  
3 K23K3K1  
4 K1K33K2  

Ans.

(1)

From the given equations,

2NH3N2+3H2;  1K1                         ...(i)

N2+O22NO;  K2                               ...(ii)

3H2+32O23H2O;  K33                       ...(iii)

By adding equations (i), (ii) and (iii), we get

2NH3+52O2k2NO+3H2O,   K=K2K33K1
