A reaction mixture at 175 k initially contains 522 torr of no and 421 torr of o2. at equilibrium, the total pressure in the reaction mixture is 748 torr. calculate kp at this temperature.

The chemical equation would be:

2NO(g) + O2(g) --> 2NO2 (g) 

At equilibrium state, the partial pressure of the gases would be as follows : 

NO = 522 - 2x 

O2 = 421 - x 

NO2 = 2x 
- - - - - - - - - - - - -
943 - x = 748 

x = 195

Calculating for Kp,

Kp = (NO2)^2/ ((NO)^2 * (O2)) 

Kp = (2 * 195)^2/ ((522 - 2 * 195)^2 * (421 - 195)) 

Kp = 0.0386
