For the reaction 2NO2(g) ⇌ 2NO(g) + O2(g), (Kc = 1.8 × 10−6 at 184C) (R = 0.0831 kJ/(mol.K)) When Kp and Kc are compared at 184°C, it is found that

Question

Accepted Answer

Kp is greater than Kc. Kp is greater than Kc in this reaction because the formation of gaseous products results in an increase in the number of moles of gas, which typically leads to a higher equilibrium constant when expressed in terms of partial pressures compared to concentrations.
