Doesn't necessarily weather more than less, just does it more quickly because it is full of tiny connected air spaces that allows water to seep through it.

The equilibrium constant Kc for the reaction PCl3(g) + Cl2(g) ⇌ PCl5(g) is 49 at 230°C. If 0.70 mol of PCl3 is added to 0.70 mol

Ymorist [56]

Answer : The correct option is, (B) 0.11 M

Solution :

First we have to calculate the concentration $PCl_3$ and $Cl_2$ .

$\text{Concentration of }PCl_3=\frac{\text{Moles of }PCl_3}{\text{Volume of solution}}$

$\text{Concentration of }PCl_3=\frac{0.70moles}{1.0L}=0.70M$

$\text{Concentration of }Cl_2=\frac{\text{Moles of }Cl_2}{\text{Volume of solution}}$

$\text{Concentration of }Cl_2=\frac{0.70moles}{1.0L}=0.70M$

The given equilibrium reaction is,

$PCl_3(g)+Cl_2(g)\rightleftharpoons PCl_5(g)$

Initially 0.70 0.70 0

At equilibrium (0.70-x) (0.70-x) x

The expression of $K_c$ will be,

$K_c=\frac{[PCl_5]}{[PCl_3][Cl_2]}$

$K_c=\frac{(x)}{(0.70-x)\times (0.70-x)}$

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

$49=\frac{(x)}{(0.70-x)\times (0.70-x)}$

By solving the term x, we get

$x=0.59\text{ and }0.83$

From the values of 'x' we conclude that, x = 0.83 can not more than initial concentration. So, the value of 'x' which is equal to 0.83 is not consider.

Thus, the concentration of $PCl_3$ at equilibrium = (0.70-x) = (0.70-0.59) = 0.11 M

The concentration of $Cl_2$ at equilibrium = (0.70-x) = (0.70-0.59) = 0.11 M
