During the chlorination of silicon, chlorine gas is reacted with solid silicon to form silicon tetrachloride. si(s) + 2cl2(g) + heat ↔ sicl4(g) at equilibrium, a 2l reaction vessel at 25°c contains 0.500 g of silicon, a 0.259 m concentration of chlorine and a 0.348 m concentration of silicon tetrachloride. calculate the equilibrium constant at these conditions. a) 0.672 b) 5.19 c) 1.34 d) 1.30

when the volume of gas is   changed from   717.73 ml   to 852 ml   the temperature will   change   from 315   c to 452   c

    calculation

this is calculated using the charles law formula

that is,   v1/t1 = v2/t2

          v1=?

        t1 = 315 c   into   kelvin = 315 +273 = 588 k

        v2 = 852   ml

        t2 = 425c + 273 =698 k

make v1   the subject of the formula ( by   multiplying both side by t1)

  v1=( v2 xt1) / t2

v1= (852 ml   x 588 k)/ 698 k= 717.73 ml
