Chapter 14, Problem 14.31QP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The value of equilibrium constant $K_{\text{p}}$ for the reaction with the given $K_{\text{c}}$ value is to be calculated.

Concept introduction: $K_{\text{p}}$ is defined as the equilibrium constant in a reaction. It is equal to the ratio of the partial pressures of the products and that of reactants raised to the power of their stoichiometric coefficients.

$K_c$ is defined as the equilibrium constant in a reaction expressed in terms of molar concentrations of reactants and products. It is equal to the ratio of the concentration of the products and reactants raised to the power of their stoichiometric coefficients.

To determine: The value of equilibrium constant $K_{\text{p}}$ for the reaction with the given $K_{\text{c}}$ value.
