Question

The thermal dissociation equilibrium of CaCO3(s) is studied under different conditions.

CaCO3(s) ⇌ CaO(s) + CO2(g)

For this equilibrium, the correct statement(s) is(are)

K is dependent on the pressure of CO2 at a given T

ΔH is dependent on T

ΔH is independent of the catalyst, if any

K is independent of the initial amount of CaCO3

Solution

CaCO3(s) ⇌ CaO(s) + CO2(g)

(A) ΔHT2ΔHT1=Δ(nCp)dT

 Δ(nCP 0

  [A] is true

(B) B is true since equilibrium constant is not dependent on amount of CaCO3

(C) False at any give temperature K will be constant

(D) True
