Question:medium

\(PCl_{5}\) is dissociating 50% at 250°C at a total pressure of \( P \) atm. If the equilibrium constant is \( K_p \), then which of the following relation is numerically correct?

Show Hint

For dissociation reactions, the equilibrium constant \( K_p \) can be calculated using the partial pressures of the reactants and products. Ensure that the stoichiometry of the reaction is correctly accounted for in the calculations.

  • \( K_p=3P \)
  • \( P = 3K_p \)
  • \( P = \frac{2K_p}{3} \)
  • \( K_p = \frac{2P}{3} \)
