Question

**Equilibrium Constant Problem**

**Reaction and Conditions:**

The equilibrium constant, $ K_p $, for the following reaction is 0.497 at 500 K.

\[ \text{PCl}_5 (g) \rightleftharpoons \text{PCl}_3 (g) + \text{Cl}_2 (g) \]

**Problem Statement:**

If an equilibrium mixture of the three gases in a 12.7 L container at 500 K contains:

- $\text{PCl}_5$ at a pressure of 0.804 atm
- $\text{PCl}_3$ at a pressure of 0.911 atm

Determine the equilibrium partial pressure of $\text{Cl}_2$.
