1. The problem involves the reaction: 2NO(g) + O_2(g) \rightleftharpoons 2NO_2(g).
2. We are asked to relate the equilibrium constants $K_c$ and $K_p$ for this reaction at temperature $T$.
3. The general relationship between $K_p$ and $K_c$ is given by:
$$K_p = K_c (RT)^{\Delta n}$$
where $R$ is the gas constant, $T$ is the temperature in Kelvin, and $\Delta n$ is the change in moles of gas.
4. Calculate $\Delta n$ for the reaction:
$$\Delta n = \text{moles of gaseous products} - \text{moles of gaseous reactants} = 2 - (2 + 1) = 2 - 3 = -1$$
5. Substitute $\Delta n = -1$ into the formula:
$$K_p = K_c (RT)^{-1} = \frac{K_c}{RT}$$
6. Therefore, the relationship between $K_p$ and $K_c$ for this reaction is:
$$\boxed{K_p = \frac{K_c}{RT}}$$
This means that to find $K_p$ from $K_c$, divide $K_c$ by the product of the gas constant and temperature.
