  • question_answer
    The value of \[{{K}_{p}}\] for the equilibrium reaction \[{{N}_{2}}{{O}_{4}}(g)\rightleftharpoons 2N{{O}_{2}}(g)\] is 2.  The percentage dissociation of \[{{N}_{2}}{{O}_{4}}(g)\] at a pressure of 0.5 atm is

    A) 25                    

    B) 88    

    C) 50                    

    D) 71

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d]  \[\begin{align}   & \begin{matrix}    {} & {} & {} & \,\,\,\,\,\,{{N}_{2}}{{O}_{4}}(g)\rightleftharpoons 2N{{O}_{2}}(g)  \\ \end{matrix} \\  & \begin{matrix}    \text{Initial}\,\,\text{moles} & {} & 1 & {}  \\ \end{matrix}\begin{matrix}    {} & 0  \\ \end{matrix} \\  & \begin{matrix}    \text{Moles}\,\,\text{at}\,\,\text{equil}\text{.} & (1-\alpha ) & 2\alpha  & {}  \\ \end{matrix} \\  & \begin{matrix}    {} & {} & {} & (\alpha =degree\,\,of\,dissociation)  \\ \end{matrix} \\ \end{align}\] Total number of moles at equil. \[=\left( 1-\alpha  \right)+2a\] \[=\left( 1+\alpha  \right)\] \[{{P}_{{{N}_{2}}{{O}_{4}}}}=\frac{\left( 1-\alpha  \right)}{\left( 1+\alpha  \right)}\times P\] \[{{P}_{N{{O}_{2}}}}=\frac{2\alpha }{\left( 1+\alpha  \right)}\times P\] \[{{K}_{p}}=\frac{{{({{P}_{N{{O}_{2}}}})}^{2}}}{{{P}_{{{N}_{2}}{{O}_{4}}}}}=\frac{{{\left( \frac{2\alpha }{(1+\alpha )}\times P \right)}^{2}}}{\left( \frac{1-\alpha }{1+\alpha } \right)\times P}=\frac{4{{\alpha }^{2}}P}{1-{{\alpha }^{2}}}\] Given, \[{{K}_{p}}=2,P=0.5\] atm \[\therefore {{K}_{p}}=\frac{4{{\alpha }^{2}}P}{1-{{\alpha }^{2}}}\] \[=\frac{4{{\alpha }^{2}}\times 0.5}{1-{{\alpha }^{2}}}\] \[\alpha =0.707\approx 0.71\] \[\therefore \] Percentage dissociation \[=0.71\times 100=71\]
