Problem

In a rigid vessel, the reaction 2P(g) ⇌ Q(g) has reached equilibrium. A particulate diagram reveals 80 particles of P and 10 particles of Q in the vessel. What is the value of the equilibrium constant KK? (a) 1.25×10−11.25 \times 10^{-1} (b) 3.91×10−43.91 \times 10^{-4} (c) 1.56×10−31.56 \times 10^{-3} (d) 1.56×10−21.56 \times 10^{-2}
