Phosphorus pentachloride decomposes to phosphorus trichloride at high temperatures according to the equation:     At 250 °C 0.125 mol L<sup>-1</sup> PCl<sub>5</sub> is added to the flask.If K<sub>c</sub> = 1.80,what are the equilibrium concentrations of each gas? A) [PCl<sub>5</sub>] = 0.00765 mol L<sup>-1</sup>,[PCl<sub>3</sub>] = 0.117 mol L<sup>-1</sup>,and [Cl<sub>2</sub>] = 0.117 mol L<sup>-1</sup> B) [PCl<sub>5</sub>] = 0.0625 mol L<sup>-1</sup>,[PCl<sub>3</sub>] = 0.335 mol L<sup>-1</sup>,and [Cl<sub>2</sub>] = 0.335 mol L<sup>-1</sup> C) [PCl<sub>5</sub>] = 1.80 mol L<sup>-1</sup>,[PCl<sub>3</sub>] = 1.80 mol L<sup>-1</sup>,and [Cl<sub>2</sub>] = 1.80 mol L<sup>-1</sup> D) [PCl<sub>5</sub>] = 3.96 mol L<sup>-1</sup>,[PCl<sub>3</sub>] = 3.83 mol L<sup>-1</sup>,and [Cl<sub>2</sub>] = 3.83 mol L<sup>-1</sup>
At 250 °C 0.125 mol L-1 PCl5 is added to the flask.If Kc = 1.80,what are the equilibrium concentrations of each gas?


A) [PCl5] = 0.00765 mol L-1,[PCl3] = 0.117 mol L-1,and [Cl2] = 0.117 mol L-1
B) [PCl5] = 0.0625 mol L-1,[PCl3] = 0.335 mol L-1,and [Cl2] = 0.335 mol L-1
C) [PCl5] = 1.80 mol L-1,[PCl3] = 1.80 mol L-1,and [Cl2] = 1.80 mol L-1
D) [PCl5] = 3.96 mol L-1,[PCl3] = 3.83 mol L-1,and [Cl2] = 3.83 mol L-1
