Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Since we have a relationship between KC and KP as given below

KP=KC (RT) ^dn

dn = difference in the no of gaseous products and Reactants

For A, dn = 1+1 - (1+1) = 2-2=0

KP=KC (RT) ^0

KP=kc (1) since a^0=1

Hence KP=KC

For B, dn=2 - (2+1) = 2-3=-1, hence KP not equal to KC

For C, dn=2+6 - (4+3) = 8-7=1

For D, dn=2-3=-1, KP is not equal to KC

So option A is correct answer
