Chlorine monoxide and dichlorine dioxide are involved in the catalytic destruction of stratospheric ozone. They are related by the equation 2ClO(g)← →Cl2O2(g) for which Kc is 4.96×10^11 at 273 K. For an equilibrium mixture in which [Cl2O2] is 6.00×10−6M , what is [ClO]?

Equilibrium constant Kc for a reaction is defined as the product of the equilibrium molar concentrations of the products, each raised to the power equal to a stoichiometric coefficient divided by the product of the equilibrium molar concentrations of the reactant each raised to the power equal to its stoichiometric coefficient .
& the most important convention to be kept in mind is that the active mass of a pure solid or pure liquid is considered to be constant.
