Answer to Question #271395 in General Chemistry for jena

Question

1. A 1.50 L reaction vessel contains a gaseous mixture of 2.1 mol NOCl, 0.52 mol NO and 0.21 mol Cl₂. The vessel was heated to 400^oCuntil the system attained equilibrium. If K_c is 0.035 at this temperature, to which direction did the reaction proceed to attain equilibrium? The reaction is as follows: 2NOCl _(g) <---> 2NO _(g) + Cl_{2 (g)}

Answer 1

2NOCl _(g) <---> 2NO _(g) + Cl_{2 (g)}

The reaction shifted to the left
