Question

Group 2

The equilibrium constant, K, for the following reaction is 1.34E-2 at 601 K.

COCl2(g) CO(g) + Cl2(g)


An equilibrium mixture of the three gases in a 10.9 L container at 601 K contains 0.265 M COCl2, 5.96E-2 M CO and 5.96E-2 M Cl2. What will be the concentrations of the three gases once equilibrium has been reestablished, if the equilibrium mixture is compressed at constant temperature to a volume of 6.29 L?

[COCl2]

=

M

[CO]

=

M

[Cl2]

=

M

The equilibrium constant, K, for the following reaction is 1.88E-2 at 611 K.

COCl2(g) CO(g) + Cl2(g)


An equilibrium mixture of the three gases in a 8.59 L container at 611 K contains 0.273 M COCl2, 7.17E-2 M CO and 7.17E-2 M Cl2. What will be the concentrations of the three gases once equilibrium has been reestablished, if the volume of the container is increased to 19.0 L?

[COCl2]

=

M

[CO]

=

M

[Cl2]

=

M

Explanation / Answer

after decreasing volume to 6.29 L concentration will increase

M1V1=M2V2 relation we can use

[COCl2]=0.45M

[CO]=0.1032M

[Cl2]=0.1032M

after increasing volume to 19.0L the concentration will decrease

M1V1=M2V2 relation we can use

[COCl2]=0.120M

[CO]=0.0324M

[Cl2]=0.0324M
