Question

Calculate the Q and predict the direction in which the reaction would proceed. 

At 4000 °C the equilibrium constant Kc for the following reaction is 0.082:
2 Cl02 (e) Cl2 (2) + 2 O2 (g)
Calculate the Q and predict the direction in which the reaction would proceed toward in order to
reach equilibrium when 5.0 x10-3 mol of Cl2, 2.0 x 10-3 mol of O2, and 1.0 x 104 mol of C1O2 are
mixed in a 4.0 L container.
