K = 1.5 x 102

Explanation:

CO(g) + 2H2(g)CH3OH(g)
Kp = 2.26 x 104

where K = 2.26 x 104 at 298 K.
If we were to divide the coefficients of above reaction equation by 2, we would get the following equation:

12CO(g) + H2(g)12CH3OH(g)

Now K =[CH3OH(g)]0.5/[CO(g)0.5]. [H2(g)]

threfore
K= √(kp)...........................square root of Kp
K = √ (2.26 x 104)
K = 150.33
K = 1.5 x 102
