JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 11 - 6.1. Equilibrium - 1 (chemical Equilibrium)

At a certain temperature in a \(5\,L\) vessel, \(2\,moles\) of carbon monoxide and \(3\,moles\) of chlorine were allowed to reach equilibrium according to the reaction, \(CO + C{l_2} \rightleftharpoons COC{l_2}\) . At equilibrium, if one mole of \(CO\) is present then equilibrium constant \((K_c)\) for the reaction is

  1. A \(2.5\)
  2. B \(4\)
  3. C \(2\)
  4. D \(3\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(2.5\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Initially \(2\) moles of \(CO\) are present. At equilibrium, \(1\) mole of \(CO\) is present Hence, \(2-1=1\) moles of \(CO\) has reacted. \(1\) mole of \(CO\) will react with \(1\) mole of \(Cl_2\) to from \(1\) mole of \(COCl_2\). \(3-1=2\) moles of \(Cl_2\) remains at…
