Total pressure inside the flask

\mathrm{P_{\text {Total }}=\frac{9 \times 0.082 \times 610}{100}=4.5 \mathrm{~atm}} \\

\mathrm{P_{\mathrm{PCl_5 }}=\frac{5}{9} \times 4.5=2.5 \mathrm{~atm}} \\

\mathrm{P_{\text {Ar }}=\frac{4}{9} \times 4.5=2 \mathrm{~atm} }

Now,

\mathrm{P_{\text {Total }} \text { at\: equilibrim } =2.5-p+p+p+p_{Ar}=6} \\

\mathrm{p =1.5} \\

\mathrm{k_{p}=\frac{1.5 \times 1.5}{2.5-1.5} =2.25 }

Hence the correct answer is option 1
