The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the equilibrium constant \( K_p \) for the reaction: \[ NH_4HS(s) \rightleftharpoons NH_3(g) + H_2S(g) \] Given that the total pressure at equilibrium is \( 1.12 \, \text{atm} \) at \( 106^\circ C \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Reaction**: The reaction involves the solid ammonium hydrosulfide \( NH_4HS \) decomposing into gaseous ammonia \( NH_3 \) and hydrogen sulfide \( H_2S \). 2. **Identify the Total Pressure**: The total pressure of the gases at equilibrium is given as \( P_{total} = 1.12 \, \text{atm} \). 3. **Determine Partial Pressures**: Since the stoichiometry of the reaction shows that one mole of \( NH_3 \) and one mole of \( H_2S \) are produced from one mole of \( NH_4HS \), we can denote the partial pressures of \( NH_3 \) and \( H_2S \) as equal: \[ P_{NH_3} = P_{H_2S} = x \] Therefore, the total pressure can be expressed as: \[ P_{total} = P_{NH_3} + P_{H_2S} = x + x = 2x \] Setting this equal to the total pressure: \[ 2x = 1.12 \, \text{atm} \] Solving for \( x \): \[ x = \frac{1.12}{2} = 0.56 \, \text{atm} \] 4. **Calculate \( K_p \)**: The equilibrium constant \( K_p \) for the reaction is given by the expression: \[ K_p = \frac{P_{NH_3} \cdot P_{H_2S}}{P_{NH_4HS}} \] Since \( NH_4HS \) is a solid, its activity is considered to be 1, and thus: \[ K_p = P_{NH_3} \cdot P_{H_2S} \] Substituting the values of the partial pressures: \[ K_p = (0.56 \, \text{atm}) \cdot (0.56 \, \text{atm}) = 0.56^2 = 0.3136 \, \text{atm}^2 \] 5. **Final Result**: Rounding to three significant figures, we find: \[ K_p \approx 0.314 \] ### Conclusion: The value of \( K_p \) for the reaction at the given temperature is approximately \( 0.314 \).

To solve the problem, we need to find the equilibrium constant \( K_p \) for the reaction: \[ NH_4HS(s) \rightleftharpoons NH_3(g) + H_2S(g) \] Given that the total pressure at equilibrium is \( 1.12 \, \text{atm} \) at \( 106^\circ C \). ...
