1. Kc for the reaction below at 25°C is 4.8 x 10-6. Calculate the equilibrium concentration (mol/L) of Cl2(g) if the initial concentration of ICl(g) is 1.33 mol/L. There is no I2 or Cl2 initially present.

2ICl(g) <-> I2(g) + Cl2(g)

Explanation:

At the beginning, [ICl] = 1.33M, [Cl2] = 0M, and [I2] = 0M

If 2x = moles of ICl that react. Therefore, x = moles of Cl2 and I2 that form, right?

At equilibrium, [ICl] will drop by some factor, 2x.
At equilibrium, [Cl2] will increase by x.
At equilibrium, [I2] will increase by x.

Therefore, at equilibrium,

Kc = [I2][Cl2]/[ICl]^2 = 4.8x10-6

4.8x10-6 = (x)(x)/(1.33-2x)^2

4.8x10-6 = x^2/(1.33-2x)^2

If we take the square root of both sides:

2.2x10-3 = x/1.33-2x

Simplifying, we get:

x = 2.9x10-3 - 4.4x10-3 x

x = 2.9x10-3

Therefore, "d. 2.9 x 10-3" is correct. ...
