We have given,

Total pressure at equilibrium = 2 atm.

Constant temperature = NH4HS(s) \(\rightleftharpoons\)NH3(g) + H2S(g)

Kp\(\frac{P_{NH_3}\times P_{H_2S}}{P_{NH_4HS}}\)

∵ Partial pressure of solid substance is considered to be 1.

∴ Kp\(P_{NH_3}\times P_{H_2S}\) 

Kp\((P_{NH_3})^2\)

(From the stoichiometry of reaction)

∵ Total pressure = 2 atm

∴ \(P_{NH_3}\) = \(\frac{2\,atm}{2}\) = 1 atm

\(P_{H_2S}\) = \(\frac{2\,atm}{2}\) = 1 atm

∴ Kp = (1)2

Kp = 1atm2

Hence, the equilibrium constant Kp = 1atm2
