Solid phosphorus (P) and chlorine (C1₂) gas react to form solid phosphorus pentachloride (PCI). Suppose you have 3.0 mol of P and 2.0 mol of Cl₂ i in a reactor. Could half the P react? If you answered yes, calculate how many moles of PC15 would be produced after half the P was used up. Round your answer to the nearest 0.1 mol. O yes O no mol x10
