If `PCl_5` is heated to `250^@C` and allowed to reach equilibrium, 50% of `PCl_5` is dissociated. Calculate how many moles of `Cl_2` must be mixed with one mole of `PCl_5` to reduce the dissociation to 40%, volume remaining constant.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to analyze the dissociation of \( PCl_5 \) and how the addition of \( Cl_2 \) affects the equilibrium. ### Step 1: Write the dissociation reaction The dissociation of \( PCl_5 \) can be represented as: \[ PCl_5(g) \rightleftharpoons PCl_3(g) + Cl_2(g) \] ...
