The equilibrium constant for the reaction of chlorine gas with
phosphorus trichloride to form phosphorus pentachloride is 33 at
250°C. If an experiment is initiated with concentrations of 0.050 M
PCI, and 0.015 M Cl,, what are the equilibrium concentrations
ofall three gases?
Clg) + PCh(g) = PCl(g)
eCeC
GIVEN: K = 33; T= 250°C
Initial concentrations: [PCI3]=0.050 M; [Cl,]=0.015 M
Clg) + PCh(g) = PCl¢g)
REQUIRED: Equilibrium concentrations: [PCI3]; [Cl,]; [PCl.]
