Q.
Kp and Kp′ are the equilibrium constants of the two reactions, given below 21N2(g)+21H2(g)⇌NH3(g) N2(g)+3H2(g)⇌2NH3(g)
Therefore, Kp and Kp′ are related by
When a balanced equation having equilibrium constant Kp is multiplied by a certain value n, the equilibrium constant for the new equation will be equal to (Kp)n. In the given equation, n = 2 .So, Kp′=(Kp)2 or Kp=Kp′
