For the reaction 2H2(g) + S2(g)<---> 2H2S(g), determine the equilibrium constant at 700oC if at this temperature, the equilibrium concentrations are as follows:

[H2] = 0.208 M, [S2] = 1.13 × 10-6 M , [H2S] = 0.725 M

A1.08 × 107
B3.49

C)4.55 × 10-7

D)3.22 × 106

E)441

Verified Answer :

Equilibrium constant of a reaction is the ratio of concentrations of the products and the reactants when the reaction is in equilibrium. This value is independent of the concentrations since the conditions are at equilibrium instead it depends on ionic strength and temperature.

First, we write the equilibrium expression.

K = [H2S]^2 / [H2]^2 x [S2]
K = (0.725^2) / [(0.208^2) (1.13 x 10^-6)]
K = 10751545.56 or 1.08 x 10^7

Thus, the answer is A.
