Q86 · Chemistry

The equilibrium constants of the following are :

N2+3H2⇌2NH3\mathrm{N_2 + 3H_2 \rightleftharpoons 2NH_3} K1K_1

N2+O2⇌2NO\mathrm{N_2 + O_2 \rightleftharpoons 2NO} K2K_2

H2+12O2→H2O\mathrm{H_2 + \frac{1}{2}O_2 \to H_2O} K3K_3

The equilibrium constant (K) of the reaction :

2NH3+52O2⇌K2NO+3H2O\mathrm{2NH_3 + \frac{5}{2}O_2 \overset{K}{\rightleftharpoons} 2NO + 3H_2O}, will be :

  1. 1K1K33/K2K_1K_3^3/K_2
  2. 2K2K33/K1K_2K_3^3/K_1Official answer
  3. 3K2K3/K1K_2K_3/K_1
  4. 4K23K3/K1K_2^3K_3/K_1

Official answer: option 2 · CBSE official answer key
