Question

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°C until the system attained equilibrium. If K_c is 0.035 at this temperature, to which direction did the reaction proceed to attain equilibrium?

    2NOCl (g) ↽−−⇀ 2NO (g) + Cl₂ (g)

Answer 1

The reaction shifted to the left
