Answer

$$K_p = K_c(RT)^{\Delta n}$$ $K_p$ is the equilibrium constant calculated using the partial pressures of the gases in the reaction. $K_c$ is the equilibrium constant calculated using the concentrations of the compounds in mol/L. $R$ is the gas constant. $T$ is the temperature of the system in Kelvin. $\Delta n$ is equal to the amount of moles of gaseous products in the balanced equation minus the same for the reactants.
