A student ran the following reaction in the laboratory at 445 K

: PCl5(g)-------> PCl3(g) + Cl2(g)

When she introduced 1.28 moles of PCl5(g) into a 1.00 liter container, she found the equilibrium concentration of PCl5(g) to be 1.24 M.

Calculate the equilibrium constant, Kc, she obtained for this reaction.

Solutions

Expert Solution

          molarity of PCl5 = no of moles/volume in L

                                     = 1.28/1   = 1.28M

   PCl5(g)-------> PCl3(g) + Cl2(g)

I          1.28                  0                0

C         -0.04               0.04            0.04

E        1.24                0.04             0.04

     [PCl5]   = 1.24M

      [PCl3]   = 0.04M

     [Cl2]    = 0.04M

       Kc =   [PCl3][Cl2]/[PCl5]

               = 0.04*0.04/1.24   = 0.0013   = 1.3*10^-3 >>>>>answer
