JEE Main & Advanced Chemistry Equilibrium / साम्यावस्था Question Bank Self Evaluation Test - Equilibrium

  • question_answer
    \[{{K}_{1}},{{K}_{2}}\] and \[{{K}_{3}}\] are the equilibrium constants of the following reactions (I), (II) and (III) respectively:
    (I) \[{{N}_{2}}+2{{O}_{2}}\rightleftharpoons 2N{{O}_{2}}\]
    (II) \[2N{{O}_{2}}\rightleftharpoons {{N}_{2}}+2{{O}_{2}}\]
    (III) \[N{{O}_{2}}\rightleftharpoons \frac{1}{2}{{N}_{2}}+{{O}_{2}}\]
    The correct relation from the following is

    A) \[{{K}_{1}}=\frac{1}{{{K}_{2}}}=\frac{1}{{{K}_{3}}}\]        

    B) \[{{K}_{1}}=\frac{1}{{{K}_{2}}}=\frac{1}{{{({{K}_{3}})}^{2}}}\]

    C) \[{{K}_{1}}=\sqrt{{{K}_{2}}}={{K}_{3}}\]    

    D) \[{{K}_{1}}=\frac{1}{{{K}_{2}}}={{K}_{3}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b] 
    \[\begin{matrix}    (I) & {{N}_{2}}+2{{O}_{2}}\overset{{{K}_{1}}}{\mathop{\rightleftharpoons }}\,2N{{O}_{2}}  \\ \end{matrix}\]
    \[{{K}_{1}}=\frac{{{[N{{O}_{2}}]}^{2}}}{[{{N}_{2}}]{{[{{O}_{2}}]}^{2}}}\]                                             ....(i)
    \[\begin{matrix}    (II) & 2N{{O}_{2}}\overset{{{K}_{2}}}{\mathop{\rightleftharpoons }}\,{{N}_{2}}+2{{O}_{2}}  \\ \end{matrix}\]
    \[{{K}_{2}}=\frac{[{{N}_{2}}]{{[{{O}_{2}}]}^{2}}}{{{[N{{O}_{2}}]}^{2}}}\]                                ...(ii)
    \[\begin{matrix}    (III) & N{{O}_{2}}\overset{{{K}_{3}}}{\mathop{\rightleftharpoons }}\,\frac{1}{2}{{N}_{2}}+{{O}_{2}}  \\ \end{matrix}\]
    \[{{K}_{3}}=\frac{{{[{{N}_{2}}]}^{1/2}}[{{O}_{2}}]}{[N{{O}_{2}}]}\]
    \[\therefore {{({{K}_{3}})}^{2}}=\frac{[{{N}_{2}}]{{[{{O}_{2}}]}^{2}}}{{{[N{{O}_{2}}]}^{2}}}\]                        ....(iii)
    \[\therefore \] from equation (i), (ii) and (iii) \[{{K}_{1}}=\frac{1}{{{K}_{2}}}=\frac{1}{{{({{K}_{3}})}^{2}}}\]
