Question

Vapour density of the equilibrium mixture of the reaction SO2Cl2 (g) leftharpoons SO2 (g) + Cl2 (g) is 50. The extent of dissociation of SO2 Cl2 (g) is (A) 33.33 % (B) 66.67 % (C) 30.0 % (D) 35.0 %

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

50=((64+71)/(1+α))=(135/(1+α)) or 1+α =(135/2×50)=1.35 α=0.35 ⇒ 35.0 %

Q. Vapour density of the equilibrium mixture of the reaction
$S O_{2} C l_{2} (g) ⇌ S O_{2} (g) + C l_{2} (g)$ is $50.$ The extent of dissociation of $S O_{2} C l_{2}$ (g) is

$33.33%$

$66.67%$

$30.0%$

$35.0%$

$50 = \frac{( 64 + 71 )}{( 1 + α )} = \frac{135}{( 1 + α )}$
or $1 + α = \frac{135}{2 \times 50} = 1.35$
$α = 0.35 \Rightarrow 35.0%$
