Write expressions for `K_p` and `K_c` for the decomposition reaction of calcium carbonate.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To write the expressions for \( K_p \) and \( K_c \) for the decomposition reaction of calcium carbonate, we start with the balanced chemical equation for the reaction: \[ \text{CaCO}_3 (s) \rightleftharpoons \text{CaO} (s) + \text{CO}_2 (g) \] ### Step 1: Identify the products and reactants In this reaction, calcium carbonate (\( \text{CaCO}_3 \)) is the reactant, and the products are calcium oxide (\( \text{CaO} \)) and carbon dioxide (\( \text{CO}_2 \)). Note that \( \text{CaCO}_3 \) and \( \text{CaO} \) are solids, while \( \text{CO}_2 \) is a gas. ...
