Solved: The decomposition of ammonium hydrogen sulfide is

Chapter 14, Problem 73P

(choose chapter or problem)

The decomposition of ammonium hydrogen sulfide

\(\mathrm{NH}_{4} \mathrm{HS}(\mathrm{s})\ \leftrightharpoons\ \mathrm{NH}_{3}(\mathrm{g})+\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{S}(\mathrm{g})\)

is an endothermic process. A 6.1589-g sample of the solid is placed in an evacuated 4.000-L vessel at exactly \(24^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). After equilibrium has been established, the total pressure inside is 0.709 atm. Some solid \(\mathrm{NH}_{4} \mathrm{HS}\) remains in the vessel. (a) What is the \(K_{p}\) for the reaction? (b) What percentage of the solid has decomposed? (c) If the volume of the vessel were doubled at constant temperature, what would happen to the amount of solid in the vessel?
