The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the equilibrium constant \( K_c \) for the reaction \( A(g) \rightleftharpoons B(g) \) given as \( K_c = 1.1 \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Write the expression for the equilibrium constant \( K_c \)**: The equilibrium constant for the reaction can be expressed as: \[ K_c = \frac{[B]}{[A]} \] where \([B]\) and \([A]\) are the molar concentrations of gases B and A at equilibrium. 2. **Substituting the given value of \( K_c \)**: We know that: \[ K_c = 1.1 \] Therefore, we can write: \[ \frac{[B]}{[A]} = 1.1 \] 3. **Rearranging the equation**: From the equation above, we can express \([B]\) in terms of \([A]\): \[ [B] = 1.1 \times [A] \] 4. **Analyzing the concentrations**: Since \( [B] \) is equal to \( 1.1 \times [A] \), this indicates that \([B]\) is greater than \([A]\). 5. **Considering possible values**: If we consider a scenario where \([A] = 1\): \[ [B] = 1.1 \times 1 = 1.1 \] Here, \([B]\) is greater than 1. Now, if we consider another scenario where \([A] = 1.1\): \[ [B] = 1.1 \times 1.1 = 1.21 \] Again, \([B]\) is greater than 1. 6. **Conclusion**: Since we can find values for both \([A]\) and \([B]\) such that both are greater than 1, we conclude that both gases can have molar concentrations greater than 1. ### Final Answer: Both gases \( A \) and \( B \) can have molar concentrations greater than 1.
