the reaction must proceed to achieve equilibrium:
[COCI₂] =
= 0.001 M, [CO] = 3.6E-6 M, [Cl₂] = 6.61E-6 M
1st Calculate Q
Type your answer in scientific notation such as 3.5x10^9. Round your answers to three significant figures.

Expert Solution
Step 1

We will first calculate the reaction quotient Q and compare it with the equilibrium constant K.

If Q>K, The reaction will shift left  (reverse)

if Q<K, the reaction will shift to right (forward)

if Q=K, the reaction is in equilibrium
