Question

Consider the equilibrium between SO2Cl2, SO2 and Cl2.
SO2Cl2(g) SO2(g) + Cl2(g)       K = 0.236 at 394 K
The reaction is allowed to reach equilibrium in a 11.4-L flask. At equilibrium, [SO2Cl2] = 0.110 M, [SO2] = 0.161 M and [Cl2] = 0.161 M.

(a) The equilibrium mixture is transferred to a 5.70-L flask. In which direction will the reaction proceed to reach equilibrium?

to left or to the right 


(b) Calculate the new equilibrium concentrations that result when the equilibrium mixture is transferred to a 5.70-L flask.

[SO2Cl2]   M=    
 
[SO2]M    =    

[Cl2]  M =
