Question:medium

For the reaction A(g) $\rightleftharpoons$ 2B(g), the backward reaction rate constant is higher than the forward reaction rate constant by a factor of 2500, at 1000 K.
[Given: R = 0.0831 atm $mol^{–1} K^{–1}$]
$K_p$ for the reaction at 1000 K is:

Show Hint

When backward rate constant is given as a multiple of the forward rate constant, use \( K_c = \frac{k_f}{k_b} \), and relate it to \( K_p \) using \( (RT)^{\Delta n} \).
