In a study of the reaction below at 1199 K, it was observed that when the equilibrium partial pressure of water vapor is 55.4 torr, the total pressure at equilibrium is 70.7 torr. Calculate Kp for this reaction at 1199 K.

3 Fe(s) + 4 H2O(g) <==> Fe3O4(s) + 4 H2(g)

Can I get this written out? How do you know which part of the equation goes on top for finding Kp?

Answer #1

To solve this problem you have to first calculate partial pressure of remaining gaseous species and then calculate Kp by keeping partial pressures of product on the top or in numerator and of reactants in denominator.

Keep one more thing in mind species present in their solid state are not involved in Kp calculation.
