Question
Calculate the partial pressure of carbon monoxide from the following :-
CaCO3(s) ⇋ CaO(s) + CO2 (g) ; KP = 8 × 10-2
CO2(g) + C(s) ⇋ 2CO(g) ; KP = 2
CaCO3(s) ⇋ CaO(s) + CO2 (g) ; KP = 8 × 10-2
CO2(g) + C(s) ⇋ 2CO(g) ; KP = 2
Options
A.0.2
B.0.4
C.1.6
D.4
Solution
From equation (i) Kp = PCO2 ⇒ PCO2 = 8 × 10-2
from equation (ii) Kp =
⇒ PCO =
= 4 × 10-1 = 0.4 atm
from equation (ii) Kp =
⇒ PCO =
= 4 × 10-1 = 0.4 atmCreate a free account to view solution
