NEETChemistryIonic Equilibrium
For the reaction PCl₅ ⇌ PCl₃ + Cl₂ at 380K, if 3.00 mol of PCl₅ is kept in a 1L closed reaction vessel and allowed to attain equilibrium, what will be the composition of the mixture at equilibrium? (Given Kc = 1.80)
Options
- A[PCl₅] = 1.41 M, [PCl₃] = 1.6 M
- B[PCl₅] = 0.6 M, [PCl₃] = 0.6 M, [Cl₂] = 1.2 M
- C[PCl₅] = 0.8 M, [PCl₃] = 0.8 M, [Cl₂] = 0.4 M
- D[PCl₅] = 0.4 M, [PCl₃] = 0.4 M, [Cl₂] = 0.8 M
Correct answer
A. [PCl₅] = 1.41 M, [PCl₃] = 1.6 M
Step-by-step solution
Correct Option is : (A) [PCl₅] = 1.41 M, [PCl₃] = 1.6 M
