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 the correct explanation of A.

B

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

C

A is true but R is false.

D

Both A and R are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Correct R. To keep pressure constant, addition of helium is accompanied by increase in volume of the reaction mixture.

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

the degree of dissociation of PCI_(5) at a certain temperature and under one atmosphere pressure is 0.2. Calculate the pressure at which it is half dissociated at the same temperature.
