MCQ
$5\, moles$ of $PCl_5$ are heated in a closed vessel of $5\, litre$ capacity. At equilibrium $40\%$ of $PCl_5$ is found to be dissociated. What is the value of $K_c$?
  • $0.266\, M$
  • B
    $0.133\, M$
  • C
    $2.5\, M$
  • D
    $0.20\, M$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$0.266\, M$
a
$PC{l_5}(g) \rightleftharpoons PC{l_3}(g) + C{l_2}(g)$

$\frac{5}{5}\,M$

$1(1 - 0.4)\,M$      $0.4\,M$       $0.4\,M$ 

$\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{C}}=\frac{0.4 \times 0.4}{0.6}=\frac{16}{6} \times 10^{-1}=0.266\, \mathrm{M}$
