For the reaction 3 H2(g)+N2(g)⇌2 NH3(g)3\,\text{H}_2(g)+\text{N}_2(g)\rightleftharpoons2\,\text{NH}_3(g), which of the following is the correct form of the equilibrium‐constant expression KcK_c? (a) Kc=[NH3]3[H2]2[N2]K_c=\dfrac{[\text{NH}_3]^3}{[\text{H}_2]^2[\text{N}_2]} (b) Kc=[H2]3[N2][NH3]2K_c=\dfrac{[\text{H}_2]^3[\text{N}_2]}{[\text{NH}_3]^2} (c) Kc=[NH3]2[H2]3[N2]K_c=\dfrac{[\text{NH}_3]^2}{[\text{H}_2]^3[\text{N}_2]} (d) Kc=[NH3]2[H2]3[N2]2K_c=\dfrac{[\text{NH}_3]^2}{[\text{H}_2]^3[\text{N}_2]^2}
