QUESTION:

The equilibrium constant \(K_{c}\) for the decomposition of phosgene, \(\mathrm{COCl}_{2}\), is \(4.63 \times 10^{-3}\) at \(527^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\):

\(\mathrm{COCl}_{2}(g)\ \leftrightharpoons\ \mathrm{CO}(g)+\mathrm{Cl}_{2}(g)\)

Calculate the equilibrium partial pressure of all the components, starting with pure phosgene at 0.760 atm.
