Question
Consider this equilibrium reaction at 400 K.
Br, (g) + Cl, (g) = 2BRCI(g)
K. = 7.0
If the composition of the reaction mixture at 400 K is [BrCl] = 0.00520 M, [Br,] = 0.00285 M, and [Cl,]
is the reaction quotient, Q?
= 0.000523 M, what
Q =
How is the reaction quotient related to the equilibrium constant, Kc, for this reaction?
Q < K.
Q > K.
O Q = K.
