Phosgene, a poisonous gas, when heated will decompose into carbon monoxide and chlorine in a reversible reaction: COCl2 (g) <
Advocard [28]

Answer:

8.08 × 10⁻⁴

Explanation:

Let's consider the following reaction.

COCl₂(g) ⇄ CO (g) + Cl₂(g)

The initial concentration of phosgene is:

M = 2.00 mol / 1.00 L = 2.00 M

We can find the final concentrations using an ICE chart.

     COCl₂(g) ⇄ CO (g) + Cl₂(g)

I       2.00            0            0

C        -x             +x           +x

E    2.00 -x          x             x

The equilibrium concentration of Cl₂, x, is 0.0398 mol / 1.00 L = 0.0398 M.

The concentrations at equilibrium are:

[COCl₂] = 2.00 -x = 1.96 M

[CO] = [Cl₂] = 0.0398 M

The equilibrium constant (Keq) is:

Keq = [CO].[Cl₂]/[COCl₂]

Keq = (0.0398)²/1.96

Keq = 8.08 × 10⁻⁴
