For the following reaction, what is Δn required in the conversion of K_c to K_p? 2SO₂(g) + O₂(g) ⇌ 2SO₃(g)

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

K_c and K_p both contain the same number of moles of gas, so Δn = 0. Therefore, we can use the simplified equation: 2SO2(g) + O2(g) ⇌ 2SO3(g) In this equation, the reactants contain 3 moles of gas, while the products contain 2 moles of gas. Therefore, Δn = products - reactants = -1.
