Asseration : In the dissociation of PCI(...

Asseration : In the dissociation of `PCI_(5)` at constant pressure and temperature addition of helium at equilibrium increases the dissociation of `PCI_(5)`.
Reason : Helium removes `CI_(2)` from the field of action.

A

Both A and R are true and R is correct explanation of A.

B

Both A and R are ture but R is not correct explanation of A.

C

A is true but R is false.

D

Both A and are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Correct reason: Addition of a gas at constant pressure increases the volume. As a result, the number of moles per unit volume decreases. To increase, it more. Of `PCI_(5)` dissociates.

Assertion : In the dissociation of PCl_(5) at constant pressure and temperature addition of helium at equilibrium increases the dissociation of PCl_(5) . Reason : Helium reacts with Cl_(2) and hence shifts the equilibrium in forward direction.

The dissociation of PCI_5 decreases in presence of CI_2 Why ?

Assertion (A) : Adding inert gas to dissociation equilibrium of N_(2)O_(4) at constant pressure and temperature increases the dissociation. Reason (R) : molar concentration of the reactants and products decreases.

Assertion :- Adding inert gas at equilibrium to dissociation of PCL_(3) at constant pressure increases the degree of dissociation. Reason :- Since degree of dissociation x alphasqrt(v)

The degree of dissociation of PCl_(5) decreases with increase in pressure.

Assertion: The dissociation of PC1_(5) decreases on increase. Reason: An increase in pressure favours the forward reaction.

Assertion: To a system at equilibrium addition of inert gas at constant pressure and temperature drive the reaction to the side where larger number of active species is present. Reason: Addition of inert gas at constant temperature and pressure increases the equilibrium volume.

At 250^(@)C and one atmosphere PCl_(5) is 40% dissociated The equilibrium constant (K_(c)) for dissociation of PCl_(5) is
