Question

Phosphorus    pentachloride    thermally    dissociates    according    to    reaction given    below.
PCl5(g) ⇌ PCl3(g) + Cl2(g)
a) What    is    the    equilibrium    expression,    in    term    of    mole    fractions,    for    this    reaction?
b) What    is    the    mole    fraction, Xi ,    in terms    of    α,    for    each    species present?     Here,  α is    the    
degree    of    dissociation    of    the    reaction.
c) If     the    degree    of    dissociation is    0.920    at 600    K and    5.0 bar,    what    is     the    value    of     the    
equilibrium    constant
