If Kc = 4.4 x 10^-2 for PCl3(g) + Cl2(g) ⇄ PCl5(g) at 520 K, what is the value of Kp for this reaction at this temperature? Express your answer using two significant figures.

Solutions

Expert Solution

Given Kc = 4.4 x 10-2

We know that Kp = Kc x (RT) n

Where n = change in number of moles

                  = number of moles of gaseous products - number of moles of gaseous reactants

                                 PCl3(g) + Cl2(g) ⇄ PCl5(g)

For the given reaction n = 1 - ( 1 + 1 ) = -1

R = gas constnat = 0.0821 L-atm / ( mol - K )

T = Temperature = 520 K

Plug the values we get Kp = Kc x (RT) n

                                     Kp = 4.4 x 10-2x (0.0821 x 520) -1

                                          = 1.0x10-3

Therefore Kp of this reaction is 1.0x10-3
