The correct Answer is:
To solve the equation \( \alpha = \frac{D - d}{(n - 1)d} \) and determine the correct context in which it applies, we need to analyze the terms involved in the equation and the chemical reactions that fit this description. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Terms:** - \( \alpha \): Degree of dissociation, which indicates the fraction of the reactant that has dissociated into products. - \( D \): Vapor density before dissociation. - \( d \): Vapor density after dissociation. - \( n \): Number of moles of gaseous products formed from 1 mole of reactant. 2. **Identifying the Reaction Type:** - The equation is applicable to a reaction where one mole of a reactant dissociates into \( n \) moles of products. This is essential for applying the formula correctly. 3. **Analyzing the Given Options:** - We need to find a reaction where the reactant is 1 mole and the total number of moles of products is \( n \). - Let's evaluate the provided equations one by one. 4. **Evaluating the First Option:** - Reaction: \( A \rightleftharpoons \frac{n}{3}B + \frac{2n}{3}C \) - Reactant moles: 1 (for \( A \)) - Product moles: \( \frac{n}{3} + \frac{2n}{3} = n \) - This fits the criteria, so this option is valid. 5. **Evaluating the Second Option:** - Reaction: \( A \rightleftharpoons \frac{n}{2}B + \frac{n}{4}C \) - Reactant moles: 1 (for \( A \)) - Product moles: \( \frac{n}{2} + \frac{n}{4} = \frac{3n}{4} \) - This does not fit since \( \frac{3n}{4} \neq n \). 6. **Evaluating the Third Option:** - Reaction: \( A \rightleftharpoons \frac{n}{3}B + \frac{2n}{3}C \) (same as the first option) - This has already been validated as correct. 7. **Evaluating the Fourth Option:** - Reaction: \( A \rightleftharpoons \frac{n}{2}B + C \) - Reactant moles: 1 (for \( A \)) - Product moles: \( \frac{n}{2} + 1 \) - This does not fit since \( \frac{n}{2} + 1 \neq n \) unless \( n = 2 \), which is not a general case. 8. **Conclusion:** - The only valid reaction that fits the equation \( \alpha = \frac{D - d}{(n - 1)d} \) is the first option, where the total number of moles of products equals \( n \) when starting from 1 mole of reactant. ### Final Answer: The equation \( \alpha = \frac{D - d}{(n - 1)d} \) is correctly matched for the reaction \( A \rightleftharpoons \frac{n}{3}B + \frac{2n}{3}C \).
