At 450 K phosphorus(V) chloride, PCl5(g), decomposes to form phosphorus(III) chloride, PCl3(g), and chlorine, Cl2(g). A dynamic equilibrium is established as shown. PCl5(g) ⇌ PCl3(g) + Cl2(g) ΔH = +124 kJ mol-1 When 2.00 mol of PCl5(g) are decomposed at 450K and 1.00 × 10^5 Pa the resulting equilibrium mixture contains 0.800 mol of Cl2(g).
