Correct relationship b/w Ke and Kp can be written as:
Correct answer: B. Kp=Ke (RT)∆n
- A. Kp=Ke (R)∆n
- B. Kp=Ke (RT)∆n
- C. Ke=Kp (RT)∆n
- D. Kp=Ke (R/N)∆n
Explanation
This equation simply converts between the concentration form of the equilibrium constant and the pressure form, by using the ideal gas law and accounting for the difference in the number of moles of gas between products and reactants. The (RT)Δn factor adjusts for how much "space" the gas molecules take up in pressure terms versus concentration terms.

About Chemical Equilibrium
Reversible reactions reach dynamic equilibrium when forward and reverse rates become equal, and Le Chatelier's principle predicts the effect of changing concentration, pressure or temperature. The chapter also covers solubility product, the common ion effect, buffer action and the conditions used in Haber's process, with equilibrium shifts distinguished from changes in the equilibrium constant.
