Correct answer: 12
- Set up degree of dissociation for both reactions
Let the initial amount of each reactant be the same, say mole, and let the common degree of dissociation be .
Since the problem states that the initial concentration and the degree of dissociation are equal for both reactants and , we can use the same initial moles and same for both systems.
- Reaction (i):
Initial moles:
At equilibrium:
Total moles at equilibrium:
If total pressure is , then partial pressures are
Now,
So,
Simplify:
Hence,
- Reaction (ii):
Initial moles:
At equilibrium:
Total moles at equilibrium:
If total pressure is , then partial pressures are
Now,
So,
Simplify:
Hence,
- Find the ratio
Cancel common terms:
Thus,
So,
- Comparison with stored answer
Derived answer:
Stored correct answer:
They match.
