Explanation / Answer

Answer – We are given the at equilibrium P PCl5(g) = 217 torr, P Cl2 = 13.2 torr , P PCl3(g) = 13.2 torr

Reaction - PCl3(g) + Cl2 <-----> PCl5(g)

Calculation of Kp

We know,

Kp = P PCl5(g) / P PCl3(g) * P Cl2(g)

      = 217.0 / 13.2*13.2

      = 1.25

The total pressure is 263 torr, when we added more pressure of Cl2(g)

The added pressure of Cl2 = 263 torr – 217 +13.2+13.2

                                          = 19.6 torr

P PCl5(g) = 217 torr, P Cl2 = 13.2+19.6 torr = 32.8 torr , P PCl3(g) = 13.2 torr

    PCl3(g) + Cl2 <-----> PCl5(g)

I   13.2         32.8            217

C -x         -x                +x

E 13.2-x   32.8-x        217+x

So, Kp = P PCl5(g) / P PCl3(g) * P Cl2(g)

   1.25 = 217+x / (13.2-x)*(32.8-x)

1.25 [(13.2-x)*(32.8-x)] = 217+x

1.25x2-57.5x + 541.2 = 217+x

1.25x2- 58.5x + 324.2 = 0

Using the quadratic equation

x = -b +/- b2-4a*c / 2a

a = 1.25, b = -58.5 , c = 324.2

By solving this equation-

x = 6.42

At re-equilibrium partial pressure of each -

P PCl3(g) = 13.2-x

          = 13.2-6.42

         = 6.78 torr

P Cl2(g) = 32.8-x

             = 32.8 +6.42

            = 26.4 torr

P PCl5(g) = 217+x

               = 217+6.42

               = 223.4 torr
