5. Sulfuryl chloride, SO2Cl2, is a highly reactive gaseous compound. When heated, it decomposes as follows: SOCI(g) = SO2(g) + Cl2(g). This decomposition is endothermic. A sample of 3.509 grams of SO2Cl2 is placed in an evacuated 1.00-liter bulb and the temperature is raised to 375 K. a) What would be the pressure in atmospheres in the bulb if no dissociation of the SO2Cl2(g) occurred? b) When the system has come to equilibrium at 375 K, the total pressure in the bulb is found to be 1.43 atmospheres. Calculate the partial pressures of SO2, Cl2, and SO-Cl, at equilibrium at 375 K. c) Give the expression for the equilibrium constant (either K, or K) for the decomposition of SO_C12(g) at 375 K. Calculate the value of the equilibrium constant you have given. d) If the temperature were raised to 500 K, what effect would this have on the equilibrium constant? Explain briefly.
