# Reaction Equilibrium Analysis

**Objective:** Determine the reaction quotient and predict the direction that each of the following reactions will proceed to reach equilibrium.

### Reactions and Conditions:

**1. Reaction 1:**

- **Equation:** \( 2 \text{NO}(g) + \text{Cl}_2(g) \rightleftharpoons 2 \text{NOCl}(g) \)
- **Conditions:** A 1.00 L flask containing 0.1500 mol NO, 0.0155 mol Cl\(_2\), and 0.500 mol NOCl.
- **Equilibrium Constant (K\(_{\text{eq}}\)):** \( 4.16 \times 10^{-5} \)
- **Prediction:** Shift right.

**2. Reaction 2:**

- **Equation:** \( \text{N}_2(g) + 3\text{H}_2(g) \rightleftharpoons 2\text{NH}_3(g) \)
- **Conditions:** A 500 L flask containing 14 g N\(_2\), 12 g H\(_2\), and 17 g NH\(_3\).
- **Equilibrium Constant (K\(_{\text{eq}}\)):** 0.060 (at 526°C)
- **Prediction:** Shift left.

**3. Reaction 3:**

- **Equation:** \( 2\text{SO}_2(g) \rightleftharpoons 2\text{SO}_3(g) + \text{O}_2(g) \)
- **Conditions:** A 200 L flask containing 230 g SO\(_3\).
- **Equilibrium Constant (K\(_{\text{eq}}\)):** 0.230

### Prediction:

**General Approach:**

1. **Calculate the Reaction Quotient (Q):** Compare Q to K\(_{\text{eq}}\) to predict the direction of the shift.
2. **Interpret the Shift:**
   - If \( Q < K\), the reaction will shift right (toward products).
   - If \( Q > K\), the reaction will shift left (toward reactants).

### Conclusion for Reaction 3:

- **Prediction:** The specific shift is not provided; calculate Q and compare with K\(_{\text{eq}}\) to predict the direction.
