2 moles of `PCl_(5)` was heated in a closed vessel of 2 litre capacity. At equilibrium, `40%` of `PCl_(5)` is dissociated it `PCl_(3)` and `Cl_(2)`. The value of equilibrium constant is

A

`0.266`

B

`0.53`

C

`2.66`

D

`5.3`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`{:(PCl_(5),hArr,PCl_(3),+,Cl_(2)),(2,,0,,0):}`
`(2xx60)/(100)` `(2xx40)/(100)` `(2xx40)/(100)`
volume of container = 2L
`K_(c) = ((2xx40)/(100xx2)xx(2xx40)/(100xx2))/((2xx60)/(100xx2))= 0.266`
