The reaction of hydrogen gas with chlorine gas, H₂ (g) + CL₂ (g) ⇄ 2 HCl(g), has a K_p value of 0.500.If 0.250 atm of both H₂ and Cl₂ are placed in a closed vessel and allowed to come to equilibrium, what is the equilibrium partial pressure of HCl(g)?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Using the equilibrium expression Kp = (PHCl)^2 / (PH2)(PCl2), and substituting the initial pressures and Kp value, we solve for the equilibrium pressure of HCl, which is 0.131 atm.
