Calculate the equilibrium constant Kp for this reaction, given the following information (at 296 K ): 2NO(g)+Br2(g)⇌2NOBr(g)Kc=1.8 2NO(g)⇌N2(g)+O2(g)Kc=2.3×1030

Explanation:

The relation between Kp and Kc is given below:

Where,  

Kp is the pressure equilibrium constant

Kc is the molar equilibrium constant

R is gas constant

T is the temperature in Kelvins

Δn = (No. of moles of gaseous products)-(No. of moles of gaseous reactants)

For the first equilibrium reaction:

Given: Kc = 1.8

Temperature = 296 K

R = 0.082057 L atm.mol⁻¹K⁻¹

Δn = (2)-(2+1) = -1  

Thus, Kp is:

For the second equilibrium reaction:

Given: Kc =

Temperature = 296 K

R = 0.082057 L atm.mol⁻¹K⁻¹

Δn = (2)-(2) = 0

Thus, Kp is:

the ozone layer acts as a filter for the shorter wavelength and highly hazardous ultraviolet radiation (uvr) from the sun, protecting life on earth from its potentially harmful effects. when the sky is clear, there is an inverse relationship between stratospheric ozone and solar uvr measured at the earth's surface.
