A mixture of 0.0565 mol phosphorus pentachloride, PCl5, and 0.0800 mol helium gas, He, was placed in a 1.000-L flask and heated to 250.0C. The phosphorus pentachloride decomposes at this temperature to give phosphorus trichloride, PCl3, and chlorine gas, Cl2. The helium gas is inert. PCl5(g)PCl3(g)+Cl2(g) What is the partial pressure of helium in this equilibrium mixture at 250.0C? At equilibrium, the total pressure is found to be 6.505 atm. What is Kc for the dissociation of PCl5?
. Many sugars undergo a process called mutarotation, in which the sugar molecules interconvert between two isomeric forms, finally reaching an equilibrium between them. This is true for the simple sugar glucose, C6H12O6, which exists in solution in isomeric forms called alpha-glucose and beta-glucose. If a solution of glucose at a certain temperature is analyzed, and it is found that the concentration of alpha-glucose is twice the concentration of beta-glucose, what is the value of K for the inter-conversion reaction?

Lexan is a plastic used to make compact discs, eyeglass lenses, and bullet-proof glass. One of the compounds used to make Lexan is phosgene (COCl2), an extremely poisonous gas. Phosgene decomposes by the reaction COCl2(g)CO(g)+Cl2(g) for which Kp 6.8 109 at 100C. If pure phosgene at an initial pressure of 1.0 atm decomposes, calculate the equilibrium pressures of all species.
