The correct answer is: 0.242 atm2

NH4SH sNH3 g+H2S g

Number of moles=5.151=0.1 mol

  NH4SH NH3 H2S

Initial

concentration

0.1 mol 0 0

Equilibrium

concentration

0.11-α 0.1α 0.1α



α=30%=0.3= Degree of dissociation

So, number of moles at equilibrium,

NH3=H2S=0.1×0.3=0.03

NH4SH is not considered as it is a solid.

Kc=NH3H2S

Kc=0.0330.033=10-4

Kp=10-4 0.082×6002

Kp=0.242 atm2
