Q29 / 90 · JEE Main 2021 (27 Jul Shift 1) · Chemistry

PCl5⇌PCl3+Cl2    Kc=1.844
3.0 moles of PCl5 is introduced in a 1L closed reaction vessel at 380 K. The number of moles of PCl5 at equilibrium is —×10-3
(Round off to the Nearest Integer)

Correct answer: 1400

Solution

         PCl5( g)⇌PCl3( g)+Cl2( g)    Kc=1.844t=0     3                 0            0t=teq   3-x           x             x


⇒PCl3Cl2PCl5=x23-x=1.844
⇒x2+1.844-5.532=0
⇒x=-1.844+(1.844)2+4×5.5322
≡1.60
⇒ Moles of PCl5=3-1.60=1.40

Hence, the correct answer is 1400.
