Phosgene, COCl2, is usually produced by the reaction between carbon monoxide and chlorine according to the equation: CO (g) + Cl2 (g) = COCI2 (9) (i) Deduce the equilibrium constant expression, Kc, for this reaction.(1 point) (ii) At exactly 600 °C the value of the equilibrium constant is 0.200. Calculate the standard Gibbs free energy change, AG°, for the reaction, in kJ, using sections 1 and 2 of the data booklet. State your answer to three significant figures. (3 points)
