Question
7. Consider the following equilibrium:
2NOCI(g) = 2NO(g) + Cl2(g)
K = 1.56 x 10-5
If 2.00 moles of pure nitrogen monoxide and 3.00 moles of pure chlorine gas are
placed in a 2.00-L container, calculate the concentration of Cl2(g) once the reaction
has reached equilibrium.

Introduction

Reversible reactions always depict specified expression for equilibrium constant (K). This constant carried connectivity among equilibrium concentration of all involved reactant-product.

Chemistry homework question answer, step 1, image 1

Solution

Since it is given that 2.00 moles of NO and 3.00 moles of Cl2 are present in the container initially which reflects that there is no NOCl amount present in the solution.

Thus the reaction will proceed in the reverse direction as shown below.
