The correct Answer is:
To calculate \( K_p \) for the equilibrium reaction: \[ \text{NH}_4\text{HS (s)} \rightleftharpoons \text{NH}_3 \text{(g)} + \text{H}_2\text{S (g)} \] given that the total pressure inside the reaction vessel is 1.12 atm at \( 105^\circ C \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Reaction The reaction involves the decomposition of solid ammonium hydrosulfide (\( \text{NH}_4\text{HS} \)) into gaseous ammonia (\( \text{NH}_3 \)) and hydrogen sulfide (\( \text{H}_2\text{S} \)). Since \( \text{NH}_4\text{HS} \) is a solid, it does not appear in the equilibrium expression. ### Step 2: Write the Equilibrium Expression The equilibrium constant \( K_p \) for the reaction can be expressed in terms of the partial pressures of the gaseous products: \[ K_p = \frac{P_{\text{NH}_3} \cdot P_{\text{H}_2\text{S}}}{1} \] ### Step 3: Define Partial Pressures Let: - \( P_{\text{NH}_3} = x \) (partial pressure of ammonia) - \( P_{\text{H}_2\text{S}} = y \) (partial pressure of hydrogen sulfide) From the stoichiometry of the reaction, we know that: \[ P_{\text{total}} = P_{\text{NH}_3} + P_{\text{H}_2\text{S}} = x + y \] Given that the total pressure \( P_{\text{total}} = 1.12 \, \text{atm} \), we can express \( y \) in terms of \( x \): \[ y = P_{\text{total}} - x = 1.12 - x \] ### Step 4: Substitute into the \( K_p \) Expression Substituting \( y \) into the equilibrium expression gives: \[ K_p = x \cdot (1.12 - x) \] ### Step 5: Solve for \( K_p \) To find \( K_p \), we need to consider the total number of moles of gas produced. Since one mole of \( \text{NH}_4\text{HS} \) produces one mole of \( \text{NH}_3 \) and one mole of \( \text{H}_2\text{S} \), the total number of moles of gas is 2. Assuming ideal gas behavior, we can relate the total pressure and the partial pressures: \[ P_{\text{NH}_3} = \frac{P_{\text{total}}}{2} = \frac{1.12}{2} = 0.56 \, \text{atm} \] \[ P_{\text{H}_2\text{S}} = \frac{P_{\text{total}}}{2} = 0.56 \, \text{atm} \] Now substituting these values back into the \( K_p \) expression: \[ K_p = P_{\text{NH}_3} \cdot P_{\text{H}_2\text{S}} = 0.56 \cdot 0.56 = 0.3136 \, \text{atm}^2 \] ### Final Answer Thus, the value of \( K_p \) for the equilibrium is: \[ K_p = 0.3136 \, \text{atm}^2 \]

To calculate \( K_p \) for the equilibrium reaction: \[ \text{NH}_4\text{HS (s)} \rightleftharpoons \text{NH}_3 \text{(g)} + \text{H}_2\text{S (g)} \] given that the total pressure inside the reaction vessel is 1.12 atm at \( 105^\circ C \), we can follow these steps: ...
