Detailed Solution

The equilibrium of a reaction is, CO+Cl2COCl2 

Volume of vessel ,V = 500 mL

1000mL=1L

so, 500 mL=5001000L=0.5 L

At equilibrium concentration of species are as follows:

Concentration of CO =nv=0.1 mol0.5 L=0.2 M

Concentration of cl2=nv=0.1 mol0.5 L=0.2 M

Concentration of  COCl2=nv=0.2 mol0.5 L=0.4 M

Then, the equilibrium constant is

KC=COCl2COCl2=0.40.2×0.2

Therefore, Kc=10
