2A(g) + C₂(g) $\rightleftharpoons$ 2AC(g) K_p2
3/2A₂(g) + B(g) + C(g) $\rightleftharpoons$ AC(g) + A₂B(g) K_p3
Which relationship represents the equilibrium constant for the reaction:
3A₂(g) + 3B(g) + 2C(g) $\rightleftharpoons$ 3A₂B(g) + C₂(g) K_net = ?

• A) K_net = K_p1 x K_p2 x K_p3
• B) K_net = K_p1 x 2K_p3 / K_p2
• C) K_net = K_p1 - K_p2 + 2 K_p3
• D) K_net = K_p1 x K_p3²/ K_p2
• E) K_net = K_p1 x K_p2 x K_p3²

Validity

The accuracy with which a study reflects the true situation.

Bias

A systematic error or deviation from the truth in results or inferences that can affect the validity of research findings.
