MCQ
In reaction $A + 2B$ $ \rightleftharpoons $ $2C + D$, initial concentration of $B$ was $1.5\, times$ of $[A]$ , but at equilibrium the concentrations of $A$ and $B$ became equal. The equilibrium constant for the reaction is
  • A
    $8$
  • $4$
  • C
    $12$
  • D
    $6$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$4$
b
$\mathop {\mathop A\limits_a }\limits_{(a - x)}  + \mathop {\mathop {2B}\limits_{1.5a} }\limits_{(1.5a - 2x)}  \leftrightarrow \mathop {\mathop {2C}\limits_0 }\limits_{2x}  + \mathop {\mathop D\limits_0 }\limits_x $

Hence ${K_C} = \frac{{{{(2x)}^2} \times x}}{{(a - x){{(1.5a - 2x)}^2}}}$

Given, at equilibrium

$\therefore \,\,(a - x) = (1.5a - 2x)$

$\therefore \,\,a = 2x$

On solving ${K_C} = 4$
