Equilibrium constant (Kp) for Homogeneous Systems Flashcards
1
Q
How do you calculate partial pressure of a gas?
A
total pressure x mole fraction of that gas
2
Q
How do you calculate a mole fraction of a gas?
A
number of moles of that gas/total number of moles of gas
3
Q
The forward reaction is exothermic. State the effect, if any, of an increase in temperature on the value of Kp for this reaction and explain.
A
Effect of Kp: decreases
- equilibrium shifts in the endothermic direction
- to reduce the temperature
