Answer:
K = [H₂]² [ O₂] / [H₂O]²
Explanation:
The equilibrium constant of any reaction can be written as,
K = [product]/ [reactant]
For given reaction:
Chemical equation:
2H₂O → 2H₂ + O₂
equilibrium constant:
K = [H₂] [ O₂] / [H₂O]
In stoichiometric calculations, we will put the coefficient of balanced equation in given equilibrium constant equation.
K = [H₂]² [ O₂] / [H₂O]²
