  1. A \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{ RT }}\)
  2. B \(( RT )^{1 / 2}\)
  3. C RT
  4. D 1
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{ RT }}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\Delta n_g = n_{products, g} - n_{reactants, g}\) \(\Delta n_g = 1 - (1 + \frac{1}{2})\) \(\Delta n_g = 1 - 1.5 = -0.5\) \(\frac{K_P}{K_C} = (RT)^{\Delta n_g}\) \(\frac{K_P}{K_C} = (RT)^{-0.5}\) \(\frac{K_P}{K_C} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{RT}}\)
