The correct Answer is:
To find the equilibrium constant \( K_p \) for the reaction \[ NH_4COONH_2 (s) \rightleftharpoons 2NH_3(g) + CO_2(g) \] given that the equilibrium pressure is 5 atm, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Reaction The reaction involves the decomposition of solid ammonium carbamate into gaseous ammonia and carbon dioxide. At equilibrium, we have: - 2 moles of \( NH_3 \) (g) - 1 mole of \( CO_2 \) (g) ### Step 2: Calculate Total Moles of Gas At equilibrium, the total number of moles of gas produced is: \[ n_{total} = 2 \text{ (from } NH_3\text{)} + 1 \text{ (from } CO_2\text{)} = 3 \text{ moles} \] ### Step 3: Relate Total Pressure to Partial Pressures Given that the total equilibrium pressure \( P_{total} = 5 \, \text{atm} \), we can relate the total pressure to the partial pressures of the gases: \[ P_{total} = P_{NH_3} + P_{CO_2} \] Let \( P \) be the partial pressure of \( CO_2 \). Then, the partial pressure of \( NH_3 \) will be \( 2P \) (since there are 2 moles of \( NH_3 \)). Therefore: \[ P_{total} = 2P + P = 3P \] ### Step 4: Solve for Partial Pressure From the total pressure equation: \[ 3P = 5 \implies P = \frac{5}{3} \, \text{atm} \] ### Step 5: Calculate Partial Pressures Now we can find the partial pressures: - \( P_{NH_3} = 2P = 2 \times \frac{5}{3} = \frac{10}{3} \, \text{atm} \) - \( P_{CO_2} = P = \frac{5}{3} \, \text{atm} \) ### Step 6: Write the Expression for \( K_p \) The expression for \( K_p \) for the reaction is given by: \[ K_p = \frac{(P_{NH_3})^2 \cdot P_{CO_2}}{P_{NH_4COONH_2}} \] Since \( NH_4COONH_2 \) is a solid, its activity is taken as 1. Thus, we have: \[ K_p = (P_{NH_3})^2 \cdot P_{CO_2} \] ### Step 7: Substitute the Values Now substituting the values we calculated: \[ K_p = \left(\frac{10}{3}\right)^2 \cdot \left(\frac{5}{3}\right) \] Calculating this gives: \[ K_p = \frac{100}{9} \cdot \frac{5}{3} = \frac{500}{27} \] ### Final Answer Thus, the value of \( K_p \) is: \[ K_p = \frac{500}{27} \approx 18.52 \]
