1. I have a question regarding the equation ΔG° = -RT lnK. When solving for the equilibrium constant K, what is the relationship between the vapor pressure of each molecular compound in a reaction?
ΔG° = Free energy change
R = Universal gas constant
T = Temperature
K = equilibrium constant
*K can be solved for in concentration or pressure or solubility
2. Meaning, for the reaction aA(s) + bB(g) --> cC(g) + dD(g) where the lower case coefficients are the number of moles and the upper case coefficients are the molecular compounds. Assuming I solved for ΔG at a specific temperature and then solved for K If I wanted to find the the vapor pressure or the concentration of bB how would I relate the value of the equilibrium constant K to solve for B?
My thought is that 1/Bb = K. Is this correct?
There is a specific applied problem from where my question is derived, so if anyone would like me to post it to clarify areas where I may not be explicit enough, I can.
