    \[A(g)+3B(g)4C(g)\] Initially concentration of A is equal to that of B. The equilibrium concentrations of A and C are equal.\[{{K}_{c}}\]is:

    A) 0.08                       

    B)        0.8

    C) 8          

    D)        80

    E) \[\frac{1}{8}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  \,\,\,\,\,1 \\  (1-x) \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{A(g)}}\,+\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  \,\,\,\,\,1 \\  (1-3x) \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{3B(g)}}\,\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  0 \\  4x \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{4C(g)}}\,\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  (initial\text{ }concentration) \\  (final\text{ }concentration) \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{{}}}\,\] (at equilibrium) According to question,\[1-x=4x\] \[\therefore \]  \[x=\frac{1}{5}\] For above reaction                 \[{{K}_{c}}=\frac{{{[C]}^{4}}}{[A]{{[B]}^{3}}}=\frac{{{(4x)}^{4}}}{(1-x){{(1-3x)}^{3}}}\]                 \[{{K}_{c}}=\frac{{{\left( 4\times \frac{1}{5} \right)}^{4}}}{\left( 1-\frac{1}{5} \right){{\left( 1-3\times \frac{1}{5} \right)}^{3}}}=8.0\]
