The correct Answer is:
To find out how many times \( K_p \) is equal to \( K_c \) for the reaction: \[ N_2(g) + 3H_2(g) \rightleftharpoons 2NH_3(g) \] we can use the relationship between \( K_p \) and \( K_c \): \[ K_p = K_c \cdot (RT)^{\Delta n} \] ### Step 1: Identify the reaction and coefficients The reaction is: - Reactants: \( N_2(g) \) and \( 3H_2(g) \) - Products: \( 2NH_3(g) \) ### Step 2: Calculate \( \Delta n \) \( \Delta n \) is defined as the difference between the sum of the stoichiometric coefficients of the products and the reactants in the gaseous phase. \[ \Delta n = n_p - n_r \] Where: - \( n_p \) = sum of stoichiometric coefficients of products in gaseous phase - \( n_r \) = sum of stoichiometric coefficients of reactants in gaseous phase For our reaction: - \( n_p = 2 \) (from \( 2NH_3 \)) - \( n_r = 1 + 3 = 4 \) (from \( N_2 \) and \( 3H_2 \)) Thus, \[ \Delta n = 2 - 4 = -2 \] ### Step 3: Substitute \( \Delta n \) into the equation Now, substituting \( \Delta n \) into the equation for \( K_p \): \[ K_p = K_c \cdot (RT)^{-2} \] ### Step 4: Rearranging the equation To find the ratio \( \frac{K_p}{K_c} \): \[ \frac{K_p}{K_c} = (RT)^{-2} \] This can also be expressed as: \[ K_p = \frac{K_c}{(RT)^2} \] ### Step 5: Conclusion Thus, \( K_p \) is equal to \( \frac{1}{(RT)^2} \) times \( K_c \). Therefore, we can conclude that: \[ K_p = \frac{K_c}{(RT)^2} \] ### Final Answer \( K_p \) is equal to \( \frac{1}{(RT)^2} \) times \( K_c \). ---
