Consider the following gas phase dissociation,$PCl_{5(g)} \rightleftharpoons PCl_{3(g)} + Cl_{2(g)}$ with equilibrium constant $K_P$ at a particular temperature and at pressure $P$. The degree of dissociation $(\alpha)$ for $PCl_{5(g)}$ is

  • A
    $\alpha = \left( \frac{K_P}{K_P + P} \right)^{1/3}$
  • B
    $\alpha = \left( \frac{K_P}{K_P + P} \right)$
  • C
    $\alpha = \left( \frac{K_P}{K_P + P} \right)^{1/2}$
  • D
    $\alpha = \left( \frac{K_P}{K_P + P} \right)^2$
