For the reaction #"CO"(g) + "NH"_3(g) rightleftharpoons "HCONH"_2(g)#, if #"3.00 atm"# of #"CO"# and #"1.40 atm"# of #"NH"_3# were allowed to react in a closed container, then if #K_p = 2.70# at a certain temperature, what is #P_(HCONH_2)# at equilibrium?

With everything in a gas phase, we can use the partial pressures as proxies for the molar concentrations.
Explanation:
Set up the ICE Table
Then put those into the equilibrium expression and solve for x.
'
You can calculate the equilibrium concentrations of the other gases from it, if desired.
