Question 28

Multiple Choice

Water can decompose at an elevated temperature to give hydrogen and oxygen according to the equation below. At a particular temperature, the partial pressures of H2O, H2, and O2 are 0.055 atm, 0.0065 atm, and 0.0045 atm, respectively, at equilibrium. What is the value of the equilibrium constant, KP, for this reaction at this temperature? 2H2O(g)  Water can decompose at an elevated temperature to give hydrogen and oxygen according to the equation below.
