    For the reactions \[{{I}_{2}}(aq){{I}_{2}}\] (oil); equilibrium constant is \[{{K}_{1}}\] \[{{I}_{2}}\] (oil) \[{{I}_{2}}\] (ether); equilibrium constant is \[{{K}_{2}}\] for the reaction \[{{I}_{2}}(aq){{I}_{2}}\] (ether); equilibrium constant is \[{{K}_{3}}\] The relation between \[{{K}_{1}},{{K}_{2}},{{K}_{3}}\] is

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

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

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

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

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[{{I}_{2}}(aq){{I}_{2}}\] (oil); Equilibrium constant \[={{K}_{1}}\] \[{{I}_{2}}\] (oil) \[{{I}_{2}}\] (ether); Equilibrium constant \[={{K}_{2}}\] \[{{I}_{2}}(aq){{I}_{2}}\] (ether); Equilibrium constant \[={{K}_{3}}\] The values of \[{{K}_{1}},{{K}_{2}}\] and \[{{K}_{3}}\] are \[{{K}_{1}}=\frac{{{I}_{2}}(oil)}{{{I}_{2}}(aq)};\,{{K}_{2}}=\frac{{{I}_{2}}(ether)}{{{I}_{2}}(oil)};{{K}_{3}}=\frac{{{I}_{2}}(ether)}{{{I}_{2}}(aq)}\] \[\therefore \] \[{{K}_{3}}={{K}_{1}}{{K}_{2}}\]
