\qquad\qquad\huge\underline{{\sf Answer}}

Let's calculate Equilibrium constant for the following reaction.
\sf{K_c}

if we balance the equation, we will get :


\qquad\sf{C_((s))+ CO_2\:{(g)} \leftrightarrow2\: CO_((g))}

According to question ~


  • \qquad \sf{K_c = ([CO]²)/([CO_2])}


  • \qquad \sf{K_c = \frac{({5.4×10}^(-5))²}{({8.3×{10}^(-6)}} }


  • \qquad \sf{K_c = \frac{(29.16×{10}^(-10))}{({8.3×{10}^(-6)}}}


  • \qquad \sf{K_c = \frac{{29.16 }}{{8.3}} ×{10}^(-4)}


  • \qquad \sf K_c = 3.51×{10}^(-4)
