Lexan is a plastic used to make compact discs, eyeglass lenses, and bullet-proof glass. One of the compounds used to make Lexan is phosgene (COCl2), an extremely poisonous gas. Phosgene decomposes by the reaction

COCl2(g) <--------> CO(g) +Cl2(g)

For which Kp = 6.8 × 10-9 at100o C. If pure phosgene at an initial pressure of1.0 atm decomposes, calculate the equilibrium pressures of all species.
