Question
## Equilibrium Reaction Study

**Reaction Details:**
- Consider the following reaction where \( K_c = 77.5 \) at 600 K.
  
  \[
  \text{CO(g) + Cl}_2\text{(g) } \rightleftharpoons \text{ COCl}_2\text{(g)}
  \]

**Reaction Mixture Information:**
- A reaction mixture was found to contain:
  - 4.23 x 10\(^{-2}\) moles of CO(g)
  - 4.00 x 10\(^{-2}\) moles of Cl\(_2\)(g)
  - 0.105 moles of COCl\(_2\)(g) 

  in a 1.00 liter container.

**Equilibrium Analysis:**
- **Is the reaction at equilibrium?**
- **If not, what direction must it run in order to reach equilibrium?**

### Calculation

1. **Reaction Quotient (\(Q_c\))**:
   - Compare \(Q_c\) to \(K_c\) to determine the necessary direction to reach equilibrium.

2. **Options:**
  - A. Must run in the forward direction to reach equilibrium.
  - B. Must run in the reverse direction to reach equilibrium.
  - C. Is at equilibrium.

**Submit:** Use calculations to find \(Q_c\) and determine the direction.

Expert Solution
Step 1

We know for a reaction to be in equilibrium the reaction quotient must be equal to equilibrium constant . 

The only difference between Qc and K is that  in Kc equilibrium concentration of reactant and product is used .
