Phosgene (carbonyl chloride), COCl2 C O C l 2 , is an extremely toxic gas that is used in manufacturing certain dyes and plastics. Phosgene can be produced by reacting carbon monoxide and chlorine gas at high temperatures: CO(g)+Cl2(g)⇌COCl2(g) C O ( g ) + C l 2 ( g ) ⇌ C O C l 2 ( g ) Carbon monoxide and chlorine gas are allowed to react in a sealed vessel at 457 ∘C ∘ C . At equilibrium, the concentrations were measured and the following results obtained: Gas Partial Pressure (atm a t m ) CO C O 0.900 Cl2 C l 2 1.23 COCl2 C O C l 2 0.170 What is the equilibrium constant, Kp K p , of this reaction?
The following reaction was performed in a sealed vessel at 767 ∘C∘C :
H2(g)+I2(g)⇌2HI(g)H2(g)+I2(g)⇌2HI(g)
Initially, only H2H2 and I2I2 were present at concentrations of [H2]=3.35M[H2]=3.35M and [I2]=2.95M[I2]=2.95M . The equilibrium concentration of I2I2 is 0.0200 MM . What is the equilibrium constant, KcKc
