Which of the following equilibrium expressions corresponds to a heterogeneous equilibrium? How can you tell?

(a)

$K_c\text{ = }\left[{\text{NH}}_{\text{3}}\right]\left[\text{HCl}\right]$

(b)

$K_c\text{ = }\frac{\left[{\text{H}}^{\text{+}}\right]\left[{\text{C}}_{\text{2}}{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}{\text{O}}_2^{-}\right]}{\left[{\text{HC}}_{\text{2}}{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}\right]}$

(c)

$K_c\text{ = }\frac{\left[\text{Ag}{\left({\text{NH}}_{\text{3}}\right)}_2^{+}\right]\left[{\text{Cl}}^{\text{-}}\right]}{{\left[{\text{NH}}_3\right]}^2}$

(d)

$K_c\text{ = }\left[{\text{Ba}}^{\text{2+}}\right]{\left[{\text{F}}^{\text{-}}\right]}^2$
