Kc and Kp Exam Questions - MS

2
1. (i) Kp = p(NO2)
p(N2O4)
There must be some symbolism for pressure, and no [ ] 1
2
(iI) (Kp = p(NO2) = 48)
p(N2O4)
2
p(NO2) = 48 × 0.15 = 7.2 (1)
p(NO2) = 2.7 (1) atm (1) accept 2.683 / 2.68 / 2.7
Answer and units conditional on (iii). 3 [4]
2. (a) Pressure NOT partial pressure )
intensity or change of colour ) Any one
volume ) 1

(b) Kc = [NO2(g)] / [N2O4(g)] State symbols required 1
–2
(c) Mol NO2 at equilibrium = 0.0120 / 1.20 × 10 (1)
2 –3 –3
Kc = (0.0120) ÷ (0.0310) = 4.6 / 4.65 × 10 (1) mol dm (1) 3
(d) (i) Amount of NO2 reduced 1
(ii) No effect 1
(e) As Kc is bigger, more NO2 is produced so heat helps forward reaction /
by Le Chatelier’s principle reaction goes forward to use up heat /
as temperature increases Stotal must be more positive so Ssurroundings
(= –H/T must be less negative 1 [8]

PSO2 2  PO2
3. (a) (i) Kp = (1) [ ] no mark ( ) OK 1
PSO3 2

(ii) 2SO3  2SO2 + O2


Mols at start 2 0 0
mols at equ 0.5 1.5 0.75 (1)
Mark by process
1 mark for working out mole fraction 1 mark for × 10
1 mark for correct substitution in Kp and answer 1 mark for unit
1.5
i.e. PSO2 = × 10 = 5.46
2.75
0.7
PO2 = × 10 = 2.73
2.75
0.5
PSO3= × 10 = 1.83
2.75
n.b. could show mole fraction for all 3 and then × 10 later to
give partial pressure.
2 2
Kp = (5.46) × (2.73) / (1.83) = 24.5 (1) atm (1) 5

(b) (i) No effect (1) 1


(ii) No effect (1) 1 [8]

4. (a) (i) KP = p (CO2) allow without brackets, IGNORE p [ ] 1
(ii) 1.48 (atm)
Penalise wrong unit

Answer is consequential on (a) (i) e.g. must have atm 1
1.48
p(Cl 2 )  p(NO) 2
(b) (i) Kp = allow without brackets, penalise [ ] 1
(p(NOCl)) 2
(ii) 2NOCl 2NO + Cl2

range of answers 0.0408 / 0.041  0.039 / 0.0392 NOT 0.04
ACCEPT  2 S. F
Correct answer plus some recognisable working (5)
Marks are for processes
 Equilibrium moles
 Dividing by total moles
 Multiplying by total pressure
 Substituting equilibrium values into expression for KP 5
Calculating the value of KP with correct consequential unit.

(iii) As the reaction is endothermic – stand alone (1)


the value of KP will increase (as the temperature is increased) - (1)
st
consequential on 1 answer (if exothermic (0) then KP decreases (1))
For effect on KP mark, must have addressed whether reaction is
endothermic or exothermic 2

(iv) Because (as the value of KP goes up), the value of


2 2
pCl2 × (pNO) / (pNOCl) (the quotient) must also go up (1)
and so the position of equilibrium moves to the right – stand alone (1)
But mark consequentially on change in K in (iii)
If “position of equilibrium moves to right so Kp increases” (max 1) 2
IGNORE references to Le Chatelier’s Principle
