Question

An equilibrium mixture of PCl5(g), PCl3(g), and Cl2(g) has partial pressures of 217.0 Torr, 13.2 Torr, and 13.2 Torr, respectively. A quantity of Cl2(g) is injected into the mixture, and the total pressure jumps to 263.0 Torr (at the moment of mixing). The system then re-equilibrates. The appropriate chemical equation is PCl3(g) + Cl2(g) ? PCl5(g) Calculate the new partial pressures after equilibrium is reestablished. P(PCl5) = Number Torr P(PCl3) = Number Torr P(Cl2) = Number Torr

An equilibrium mixture of PCl_5(g), PCl_3(g), and Cl_2(g) has partial pressures of 217.0 Torr, 13.2 Torr, and 13.2 Torr, respectively. A quantity of Cl_2(g) is injected into the mixture, and the total pressure jumps to 263.0 Torr (at the moment of mixing). The system then re-equilibrates. The appropriate chemical equation is PCl_3(g) + Cl_2(g) ⇌ PCl_5(g) Calculate the new partial pressures after equilibrium is reestablished.
