NX2OX4(g)2NOX2(g) is 20\% dissociated at 300K and 1.0atm. On heating to 320K at the same total pressure, Kp doubles. The new degree of dissociation is
A0.277
B0.500
C0.350
D0.400
Answer: A
Kp1=4(0.04)/0.96=0.1667 atm, so Kp2=0.3333 atm. α=Kp/(Kp+4P)=0.3333/4.3333=0.2774. Simply doubling α ignores the α-dependence in the denominator.
