Answer:

a) pPCl5 = 0.856 atm

b)pPCl5 = 0.0557 atm

pCl2 = pCl3 = 0.800 atm

c)  Ptotal = 1.66 atm

d) 93.5

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Temperature = 600 K

Kp = 11.5

Mass of PCl5 = 2.010 grams

Volume of the bulb = 555 mL = 0.555 L

The bulb is heated to 600 K

Step 2: The balanced equation

PCl5(g) ⇄ PCl3(g) + Cl2(g)

Step 3:

a) pv = nrt

⇒with p = the pressure = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with V = the volume = 0.555 L

⇒ with n =the number of moles PCl5 = 2.010 grams / 208.24 g/mol = 0.00965 moles

⇒ with R = the gas constant = 0.08206 L*atm/mol*K

⇒ with T = the temperature = 600K

p = (0.00965 *0.08206*600)/0.555

pPCl5 = 0.856 atm

b)

The initial pressures

pPCl5 = 0.856 atm

pCl2 = pCl3 = 0 atm

For 1 mol PCl5 we'll have PCl3 and 1 mol Cl2

The pressure at the equilibrium

pPCl5 = (0.856 -x) atm

pCl2 = pCl3 = x atm

Kp = pPCl3 * pCl2/pPCl5  

11.5 = x*x / (0.856 - x)

11.5 = x²/(0.856- x)

x = 0.8003

pPCl5 = (0.856 -x) atm = 0.0557 atm

pCl2 = pCl3 = x atm = 0.800 atm

c) Since x = 0.8003 and PCl3 and PCl2 are x  

Ptotal = 0.8003 + 0.8003 +0.0557 = 1.66 atm

d)

The degree of dissociation = (x / initial pressure PCl5)

(0.8003/0.856) * 100 = 93.5
