This reaction between hydrogen chloride gas and oxygen gas reaches equilibrium at 500°C and 2 bar. The reaction forms water gas and chlorine gas. Given that the initial system contains 5 moles of hydrogen chloride gas for each mole of oxygen gas, the composition of gases in the equilibrium system needs to be determined assuming ideal gas behavior.
