Question

The expression for equilibrium constant, $${K_c}$$  for the following reaction is $$2Cu{\left( {N{O_3}} \right)_{2\left( s \right)}} \rightleftharpoons $$     $$2Cu{O_{\left( s \right)}} + 4N{O_{2\left( g \right)}} + {O_{2\left( g \right)}}$$

A. $${K_c} = \frac{{{{\left[ {Cu{O_{\left( s \right)}}} \right]}^2}{{\left[ {N{O_{2\left( g \right)}}} \right]}^4}\left[ {{O_{2\left( g \right)}}} \right]}}{{{{\left[ {Cu{{\left( {N{O_3}} \right)}_{2\left( s \right)}}} \right]}^2}}}$$
B. $${K_c} = \frac{{{{\left[ {N{O_{2\left( g \right)}}} \right]}^4}\left[ {{O_{2\left( g \right)}}} \right]}}{{{{\left[ {Cu{{\left( {N{O_3}} \right)}_{2\left( s \right)}}} \right]}^2}}}$$
C. $${K_c} = {\left[ {N{O_{2\left( g \right)}}} \right]^4}\left[ {{O_{2\left( g \right)}}} \right]$$  
D. $${K_c} = \frac{{{{\left[ {Cu{O_{\left( s \right)}}} \right]}^2}}}{{{{\left[ {Cu{{\left( {N{O_3}} \right)}_{2\left( s \right)}}} \right]}^2}}}$$
Answer :   $${K_c} = {\left[ {N{O_{2\left( g \right)}}} \right]^4}\left[ {{O_{2\left( g \right)}}} \right]$$
Solution :
$$2Cu{\left( {N{O_3}} \right)_{2\left( s \right)}} \rightleftharpoons $$    $$2Cu{O_{\left( s \right)}} + 4N{O_{2\left( g \right)}} + {O_{2\left( g \right)}}$$
Since conc. of solids is taken as 1, the expression for $${K_c}$$  becomes $${K_c} = {\left[ {N{O_{2\left( g \right)}}} \right]^4}\left[ {{O_{2\left( g \right)}}} \right]$$
