A sample of pure PCl5 was introduced into an evacuated vessel at 473 K.
After equilibrium was attained, a concentration of PCl5
was found to be 0.5 × 10–1 mol L–1. If the value of
Kc is 8.3 × 10–3 mol L–1, the concentrations of
PCl3 and Cl2 at equilibrium would be:
PCl5 (g) PCl3 (g) + Cl2(g)

1. | Equilibrium is possible only in a closed system at a constant temperature. |
2. | All measurable properties of the system remain constant. |
3. | All the physical processes stop at equilibrium. |
4. | The opposing processes occur at the same rate and there is a dynamic but stable condition. |
An incorrect statement about equilibrium among the following is:
1. | In equilibrium mixture of ice and water kept in perfectly insulated flask, the mass of ice and water does not change with time. |
2. | The intensity of the red colour increases when oxalic acid is added to a solution containing iron (III) nitrate and potassium thiocyanate. |
3. | On the addition of a catalyst, the equilibrium constant value is not affected. |
4. | The equilibrium constant for a reaction with a negative ∆H value decreases as the temperature increases. |
When hydrochloric acid is added to cobalt nitrate solution at room temperature, the following reaction takes place and the reaction mixture becomes blue. On cooling the mixture it becomes pink
\([Co(H_2O)_6]^{3+} (aq) + 4Cl^-(aq) \rightleftharpoons [CoCl_4]^{2-} (aq) + 6H_2O(l)\\ ~~~\small{(Pink})~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\small{ (Blue)}\)
On the basis of the information given above, mark the correct answer:
1. | ∆ H > 0 for the reaction |
2. | ∆ H < 0 for the reaction |
3. | ∆ H = 0 for the reaction |
4. | The sign of ∆ H cannot be predicted on the basis of the given information. |
The pH of neutral water at is 7.0. As the temperature increases, ionisation of water increases. However, the concentration of H+ ions and OH- ions is equal. What will be the pH of pure water at 60°C ?

3. | Less than 7.0 | 4. | Equal to zero |
