Answer:
- First choice: 0.042
Explanation:
Given decomposition reaction:
- 1PCl₅ (g) ⇄ 1PCl₃ + 1Cl₂(g)
Equilibrium constant:
- [tex]K_{eq}=\frac{[PCl_3]^1[Cl_2]^1}{[PCl_5]^1}[/tex]
Stoichiometric coefficients and powers equal to 1 are not usually shown as they are understood, but I included them in order to shwow you how they intervene in the equilibrium expressions: each concentration is raised to a power equal to the respective stoichiometric coefficient in the equilibrium equation.
So, your calculations are:
[tex]K_{eq}=\frac{(0.020M)(0.020M)}{0.0095M}=0.042M[/tex]
