Question 9

A sealed container holds gases P, Q and R at dynamic equilibrium.

2P(g)+Q(g)⇌3R(g) \mathrm{2P(g) + Q(g) \rightleftharpoons 3R(g)} 2P(g)+Q(g)⇌3R(g)

Measurements show that the forward reaction uses 5.0 × 1020 molecules of P each second.

How many molecules of R break down in the reverse reaction each second?

A

5.0×10205.0 \times 10^{20}5.0×1020

B

7.5×10207.5 \times 10^{20}7.5×1020

C

1.5×10211.5 \times 10^{21}1.5×1021

D

2.5×10202.5 \times 10^{20}2.5×1020
