Question

Determine Q and the direction the reaction will go (shift) for the following equation with initial partial pressures of PNO = 0.120 atm, PCl2 = 0.100, PNOCl = 0.0500 atm.  The equilibrium constant is Kp = 0.260.

2NO(g) + Cl2(g) ↔2NOCl(g)

Group of answer choices
Q = 4.20, equilibrium will shift left.
Q = 0.208, equilibrium will shift left.
Q = 1.74, equilibrium will shift left.
Q = 34.7, equilibrium will shift right.
Q = 1.74, equilibrium will shift right.
Q = 34.7, equilibrium will shift left.
Q = 4.20, equilibrium will shift right.
Q = 0.208, equilibrium will shift right.
