When ketone is reacted with phosphorous pentachloride, chlorination takes place at the carbonyl carbon with substitution of the oxygen atom to give a geminal dichloride (with 2 Cl atoms on same carbon) according to the following equation:
so we can say that acetone is converted into 2,2-dichloropropane by action of PCl₅

Answer:
0.55 atm
Explanation:
First of all, we need to calculate the number of moles corresponding to 1.00 g of carbon dioxide. This is given by
where
m = 1.00 g is the mass of the gas
Mm = 44.0 g/mol is the molar mass of the gas
Substituting,
Now we can find the pressure of the gas by using the ideal gas law:
where
p is the gas pressure
V = 1.00 L is the volume
n = 0.0227 mol is the number of moles
R = 0.082 L/(atm K mol) is the gas constant
T = 25.0 C + 273 = 298 K is the temperature of the gas
Solving the formula for p, we find
