The Total solution for NCERT class 6-12
Brominemonochloride, BrCl decomposes into bromine and chlorine and reaches theequilibrium:
for which Kc= 32 at 500 K. Ifinitially pure BrCl is present at a concentration of 3.3 × 10–3 molL–1, what is its molarconcentration in the mixture at equilibrium?
Let the amount of bromine and chlorineformed at equilibrium be x. The given reaction is:
Now,we can write,
Therefore,at equilibrium,
