In the famous reaction A B + C with equilibrium constant K, the extent of reaction depends on the
total pressure as:
2
ptotal
K=
1 2
(a) Assuming that K = 1 and ptotal = 1, what is the equilibrium value of ?
(b) Assume again that K = 1 but now that ptotal = 0.5, what now is the equilibrium value of ?
2. Consider the partition function for one type of gas made up of interacting particles:
Q(N, V, ) =
1
N!
2m
h2
3N/2
(V N b)N eaN
/V
vib

eV,vib /T
(1 eV,vib /T )2
find the values reached by CV,vib as T goes to zero and as T goes to infinity.
6. Work out an expression for the equilibrium constant as a function of both the extent of the reaction and
the total pressure P for the gas phase reaction:
2A B + C
