Answer

(a) $Kp1$ (b) $1/Kp1$ (c) $Kp1$ (d) $Kp1$ (e) $Kp1^2$

Work Step by Step

(a) Given the reaction $$CO+\frac{1}{2}O_2\Longleftrightarrow CO_2\text{ at }3\text{ atm}$$ The equilibrium constant of the reaction at $3000\text{ K}$ in terms of $K_p$ is $Kp1$. (b) Given the reaction $$CO_2\Longleftrightarrow CO+\frac{1}{2}O_2\text{ at }1\text{ atm}$$ The equilibrium constant of the reaction at $3000\text{ K}$ in terms of $K_p$ is $1/Kp1$. (c) Given the reaction $$CO+O_2\Longleftrightarrow CO_2+\frac{1}{2}O_2\text{ at }1\text{ atm}$$ The equilibrium constant of the reaction at $3000\text{ K}$ in terms of $K_p$ is $Kp1$. (d) Given the reaction $$CO+2O_2+5N_2\Longleftrightarrow CO_2+1.5O_2+5N_2\text{ at }4\text{ atm}$$ The equilibrium constant of the reaction at $3000\text{ K}$ in terms of $K_p$ is $Kp1$. (e) Given the reaction $$2C)+O_2\Longleftrightarrow 2CO_2\text{ at }1\text{ atm}$$ The equilibrium constant of the reaction at $3000\text{ K}$ in terms of $K_p$ is $1/Kp1^2$.
