    The equilibrium constants for the reactions \[{{N}_{2}}+3{{H}_{2}}2N{{H}_{3}}\] and \[\frac{1}{2}{{N}_{3}}+\frac{3}{2}{{H}_{2}}N{{H}_{3}}\] are \[{{K}_{1}}\] and \[{{K}_{2}}\] respectively. Which one of the following is the correct relationship?

    A)  \[{{K}_{1}}=2{{K}_{2}}\]

    B)  \[{{K}_{1}}=\frac{1}{2}{{K}_{2}}\]

    C)  \[{{K}_{2}}=\sqrt{{{K}_{1}}}\]

    D)  \[{{K}_{1}}={{K}_{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[{{N}_{2}}+3{{H}_{2}}\,2N{{H}_{3}}\]                 \[{{({{K}_{C}})}_{1}}=\frac{{{[N{{H}_{3}}]}^{2}}}{[{{N}_{2}}]\,{{[{{H}_{2}}]}^{3}}}\] ?. (i) \[\frac{1}{2}{{N}_{2}}+\frac{3}{2}{{H}_{2}}N{{H}_{3}}\]                 \[{{({{K}_{C}})}_{2}}=\frac{[N{{H}_{3}}]}{{{[{{N}_{2}}]}^{1/2}}{{[{{H}_{2}}]}^{3/2}}}\] ?. (ii)                 From Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get                 \[\frac{{{({{K}_{C}})}_{1}}}{{{({{K}_{C}})}_{2}}}=1\] \[{{({{K}_{C}})}_{2}}=\sqrt{{{({{K}_{C}})}_{1}}}\]
