**Equilibrium Constant Expression for Reactions**

This exercise requires you to select the equilibrium constant expression for the following reaction:

\[ 2HBr (g) \rightleftharpoons H_2 (g) + Br_2 (g) \]

**Part A**

Given the equilibrium reaction:
\[ 2HBr(g) \rightleftharpoons H_2(g) + Br_2(g) \]

Choose the correct equilibrium constant expression \( K_c \):

1. \( K_c = \frac{[H_2] [Br_2]}{[HBr]^2} \)
2. \( K_c = \frac{2[HBr]}{[H_2] [Br_2]} \)
3. \( K_c = \frac{[HBr]^2}{[H_2] [Br_2]} \)

Provide your answer by selecting the appropriate option.

**Important:**
- Ensure you understand the concept of equilibrium constant expressions.
- The equilibrium constant \( K_c \) for a reaction \( aA + bB \rightleftharpoons cC + dD \) is expressed as:
  \[ K_c = \frac{[C]^c[D]^d}{[A]^a[B]^b} \]
