Question 3

At a certain temperature and total pressure of 105 Pa, iodine vapour contains 40% by volume of I atoms

I2(g)    ↔    2l (g)

Calculate Kp for the equilibrium.

Answer

Partial pressure of I atoms,

p =  ptotal x 40/100

    =  105 x 40/100 

    =  4 x 104 Pa 

Partial pressure of I2 molecules,

p  =  ptotal x 60/100

       =  105 x 60/100 

       =  6 x 104 Pa 

Now, for the given reaction,

Kp  = (pI)2  / pI2

     =  (4 x 104 ) 2 Pa2  / 6 x 104 Pa

     =  2.67 x 104 Pa
