The course notes give information necessary to convert between various equilibrium constants. For the reaction: A_((g))2B_((g)) Assuming A and B are ideal gases and given these parameters: Ptotal = 2 atm yA0 = 0.5 G_rxn^= -50 kJ mol-1 T = 373 K R= 8.314 J mol-1 K-1 c = 1 mol L-1 (standard concentration) (1) Calculate the dimensionless equilibrium constant, Krxn. (2) Starting from an expression for the dimensionless equilibrium constant, Krxn, in terms of the thermodynamic activities of A and B, show the steps necessary to convert from Krxn to Kc and calculate KC. (Hint: aj = cj/c for an ideal gas) (3) Using the answer from (b), solve for the pressure equilibrium constant, KP
