A reaction vessel is charged with 0.50 atm of A and 0.030 atm of B. Once the reaction reaches equilibrium, what is the equilibrium partial pressure of B? Kp for this reaction is 67.2A (g) ⇌ 2 B (g)

1.000 atm

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the reversible reaction

A(g) ⇌ 2 B(g)

Step 2: Calculate the reaction quotient

Q = [B]²/[A]

Q = 0.030²/0.50

Q = 0.0018

since Q < Kp, the reaction will proceed to the right

Step 3: Make an ICE chart

       A(g) ⇌ 2 B(g)

I      0.50      0.030

C       -x          +2x

E    0.50-x    0.030+2x

Step 4: Find the value of "x"

We will use the definition of the pressure equilibrium constant.

Kp = 67.2 = [B]²/[A] = (0.030+2x)²/0.50-x

33.6 - 67.2x = 0.0009 + 0.12x + 4x²

4x² + 67.32x -33.5991 = 0

We solve this quadratic equation and we get x=0.485112  and x=−17.3151 (neglected).

Step 5: Find the partial pressure of B at equilibrium

pB = 0.030+2x = 0.030+2(0.485112) = 1.000 atm

the leaf is an organ of a typical plant, and the main functions are to complete photosynthesis and allow the plant to exchange gas, just like how we have the respiratory system. leaves have the stomata, which collects maintains co2 and o2 levels. this is necessary for cell metabolism. the leaf also collects sunlight using chloroplasts. succinctly, leaves own a pivotal role in sustaining plant life.
