Question

Bromine monochloride is synthesized using the reaction,

Br 2 ( g ) + Cl 2 ( g ) − ⇀ ↽ − 2 BrCl ( g )

K p = 1.1 × 10 − 4 at 150 K

A 200.0 L flask initially contains 0.900 kg Br 2 and 1.066 kg Cl₂

Calculate the mass of BrCl 2 in grams, that is present in the reaction mixture at equilibrium. Assume ideal gas behavior.

What is the percent yield of BrCl?
