The physical properties of alkenes and alkynes are generally similar to those of alkanes or cycloalkanes with equal numbers of carbon atoms. Alkynes have higher boiling points than alkanes or alkenes, because the electric field of an alkyne, with its increased number of weakly held π electrons, is more easily distorted, producing stronger attractive forces between molecules.
The chemical equation would be:
2NO(g) + O2(g) --> 2NO2 (g)
<span>At equilibrium state, the partial pressure of the gases would be as follows : </span>
<span>NO = 522 - 2x </span>
<span>O2 = 421 - x </span>
<span>NO2 = 2x </span>
<span>- - - - - - - - - - - - -</span>
<span>943 - x = 748 </span>
<span>x = 195</span>
Calculating for Kp,
<span>Kp = (NO2)^2/ ((NO)^2 * (O2)) </span>
<span>Kp = (2 * 195)^2/ ((522 - 2 * 195)^2 * (421 - 195)) </span>
<span>Kp = 0.0386 </span>
Answer: I would go with D.
