Question

$$PC{l_5},PC{l_3}$$   and $$C{l_2}$$  are at equilibrium at $$500\,K$$  in a closed container and their concentrations are $$0.8 \times {10^{ - 3}}\,mol\,{L^{ - 1}},$$    $$1.2 \times {10^{ - 3}}\,mol\,{L^{ - 1}}$$    and $$1.2 \times {10^{ - 3}}mol\,{L^{ - 1}}$$    respectively. The value of $${K_c}$$  for the reaction : $$PC{l_{5\left( g \right)}} \rightleftharpoons PC{l_{3\left( g \right)}} + C{l_{2\left( g \right)}}$$     will be

A. $$1.8 \times {10^3}\,mol\,{L^{ - 1}}$$
B. $$1.8 \times {10^{ - 3}}\,mol\,{L^{ - 1}}$$  
C. $$1.8 \times {10^{ - 3}}\,L\,mo{l^{ - 1}}$$
D. $$0.55 \times {10^4}\,L\,mo{l^{ - 1}}$$
Answer :   $$1.8 \times {10^{ - 3}}\,mol\,{L^{ - 1}}$$
Solution :
$$\eqalign{ & {\text{For the reaction:}} \cr & {\text{PC}}{{\text{l}}_{5\left( g \right)}} \rightleftharpoons PC{l_{3\left( g \right)}} + C{l_{2\left( g \right)}} \cr & {K_c} = \frac{{\left[ {PC{l_3}} \right]\left[ {C{l_2}} \right]}}{{\left[ {PC{l_5}} \right]}} \cr & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = \frac{{{{\left( {1.2 \times {{10}^{ - 3}}} \right)}^2}}}{{0.8 \times {{10}^{ - 3}}}} \cr & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = 1.8 \times {10^{ - 3}}\,mol\,{L^{ - 1}} \cr} $$
