Detailed Solution

Formula: KpKc=(RT)Δng\frac{K_p}{K_c} = (RT)^{\Delta n_g}

Step 1 — Calculate Δng\Delta n_g for each:

(i) N2+O22NO\mathrm{N_2 + O_2 \rightleftharpoons 2NO}: Δng=22=0KpKc=(RT)0=1\Delta n_g = 2 - 2 = 0 \frac{K_p}{K_c} = (RT)^0 = 1

(ii) N2O42NO2\mathrm{N_2O_4 \rightleftharpoons 2NO_2}: Δng=21=1KpKc=RT=24.62 dm3 atm mol1\Delta n_g = 2 - 1 = 1 \frac{K_p}{K_c} = RT = 24.62\ \mathrm{dm^3\ atm\ mol^{-1}}

(iii) N2+3H22NH3\mathrm{N_2 + 3H_2 \rightleftharpoons 2NH_3}: Δng=24=2KpKc=(RT)2=1(24.62)2=16061.65×103 dm6 atm2 mol2\Delta n_g = 2 - 4 = -2 \frac{K_p}{K_c} = (RT)^{-2} = \frac{1}{(24.62)^2} = \frac{1}{606} \approx 1.65 \times 10^{-3}\ \mathrm{dm^{-6}\ atm^{-2}\ mol^2}

Answer: Option (2) — 11, 24.6224.62, 1.65×1031.65 \times 10^{-3}
