  1. The relationship between Kc and Kp is found in this equation

    Kp = Kc * (RT)^deltaN

    N is the difference in the amount of moles of reactants and products

    Rate is 0.08206 Latm/molK

    Temperature is in K

    But you don&#039; thave to know all that

    The difference between your reactants and products is 1

    so Kp = Kc * RT


  2. Kc &#039;s have [Molarities]

    to change Molarities into pressures , we use PV=nRT,.,..

    re-arranged , it gives Pressure = n/V (RT),...

    which says Pressures = Molarities (RT)

    so we change Kc = [M] / [M] [M]  into Kp

    by [M (RT)] / [M (RT)] [M (RT)]

    most of the RT&#039;s cancel out except for one as a denominator

    so , this time Kp = Kc / RT

    your answer is: D.) Kp = Kc/RT
