At a given temperature and pressure, the equilibrium constant values for the equilibria are given below:
$ 3A_2 + B_2 \rightleftharpoons 2A_3B, \, K_1 $
$ A_3B \rightleftharpoons \frac{3}{2}A_2 + \frac{1}{2}B_2, \, K_2 $
The relation between $ K_1 $ and $ K_2 $ is:
The second equilibrium reaction is the reverse of the first reaction divided by 2.
Therefore, the relationship between the equilibrium constants is:
\[K_{2}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{K_{1}}}\]
The equilibrium constant for decomposition of $ H_2O $ (g) $ H_2O(g) \rightleftharpoons H_2(g) + \frac{1}{2} O_2(g) \quad (\Delta G^\circ = 92.34 \, \text{kJ mol}^{-1}) $ is $ 8.0 \times 10^{-3} $ at 2300 K and total pressure at equilibrium is 1 bar. Under this condition, the degree of dissociation ($ \alpha $) of water is _____ $\times 10^{-2}$ (nearest integer value). [Assume $ \alpha $ is negligible with respect to 1]
