Problem 11.27 (sixth edition)
In a gas-phase equilibrium mixture of PCl5, PCl3, and Cl2 at 500. K, PPCl5 = 1.18 bar, PCl2 = 5.43 bar. What is the partial pressure of PCl3, given that K = 25 for the reaction PCl5(g) --> PCl3(g) + Cl2(g)? Hi, I don't understand why PCl3 = (25)*(1.18) / (5.43). I would have set PCl3 = (5.43)*(25) /...
