Solution

The correct option is A 3.31×1011M1
C(s)+CO2(g)2CO(g);Kp=1014atm2CO(g)+2Cl2(g)2COOCl2;KP2=(6×103)2atm2
Add (1) and (2)
C(s)+CO2+2Cl2(g)2COCl2(g)Kp=1014×36×106=36×108 atm1
We know that Kp=Kc×(RT)ΔngKc=Kp×(RT)Δng
For given reaction Δng=1Kc=Kp(RT)=36×108 atm1×0.0821 L atm K1 mol1×1120Kc=3.31×1011M1
