Consider the following equilibrium system:
A 10.00 L evacuated flask is filled with 0.4334
mol PCl5(g) at 297.3
K. The temperature is then raised to 510.0 K,
where the decomposition of PCl5 gas
takes place to an appreciable extent. When equilibrium is
established, the total pressure in the flask is
2.665 atm.
What is the value of the equilbrium constant in terms of
concentrations, Kc, at 510.0 K?
Kc = 0.0180
Explanation
Total pressure = 2.665 atm
Total concentration = (total pressure) / [(R) * (T)]
Total concentration = (2.665 atm) / [(0.0821 L-atm/mol-K) * (510.0 K)]
Total concentration = 0.06368 M
initial moles PCl5 = 0.4334 mol
initial concentration PCl5 = (initial moles PCl5) / (volume)
initial concentration PCl5 = (0.4334 mol) / (10.00 L)
initial concentration PCl5 = 0.04334 M
ICE table | PCl5 (g) | PCl3 (g) | Cl2 (g) | |
Initial conc. | 0.04334 M | 0 | 0 | |
Change | -x | +x | +x | |
Equilibrium conc. | 0.04334 M - x | +x | +x |
Total concentration = [PCl5]eq + [PCl3]eq + [Cl2]eq
0.06368 M = (0.04334 M - x) + (x) + (x)
0.06368 M = 0.04334 M + x
x = 0.06368 M - 0.04334 M
x = 0.02034 M
[PCl5]eq = 0.04334 M - x
[PCl5]eq = 0.04334 M - 0.02034 M
[PCl5]eq = 0.023 M
[PCl3]eq = x = 0.02034 M
[Cl2]eq = x = 0.02034 M
Kc = [PCl3]eq[Cl2]eq / [PCl5]eq
Kc = (0.02034 M) * (0.02034 M) / (0.023 M)
Kc = 0.0180
