Question- Phosgene can be made by the catalytic reaction between CO and Chlorine gas in the presence of a catalyst. The chemical reaction is-
CO + Cl2 ==> COCl2
Suppose that you have measured the reaction products from and found out that they contained 3.0 lb-moles of chlorine; 10 lb-moles of phosgene, and 7 lb-moles of CO.
1) Calculate the extent of the reaction and using the value calculated
2) Determine the initial amounts of CO and Cl2 that were used in the reaction.
