Sample Problem 17.9
Calculating equilibrium concentration with simplifying assumptions
Calculate [CO], [Cl2], and [COCl2] when the following amounts of phosgene decompose and reach equilibrium in a 10.0 L flask.
(a) 5.00 mol COCl2 (b) 0.100 mol COCl2
Let x = [CO]eq = [Cl2]eq and 0.500 - x and 0.0100 - x = [COCl2]eq, respectively, for (a) and (b).
