Q.

For the reaction  A(g)2B(g), the equilibrium partial pressures of gases A and B are 4 atm and 2atm respectively. If equilibrium mixture is slowly and isothermally compressed to 12 atm, maintaining equilibrium, then the new equilibrium pressure (in atm) of B(g) is

Detailed Solution

A(g)    2B(g)  ;KP=224=1

At new equilibrium, let partial pressue of A(g) = x atm, and partial pressure of B(g) = y atm
Then total pressure = (x+y) = 12 atm  and  KP=y2x=1
Solving for x and y, we get partial pressure of B(g) = 3 atm
