4.0 moles of argon and 5.0 moles of PCI 5 are introduced into an evacuated flask of 100 litre capacity at 610 K. The system is allowed to equilibrate. At equilibrium, the total pressure of mixture was found to be 6.0 atm. The K p for the reaction is [Given : R = 0.082L atm K -1 mol -1 ]
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
PC1 5 = 5 mole
Ar = 4 mole



2.5-P P P
P total =2.5-P+P+P+P Ar =6
P=1.5
