This is an incomplete question, here is a complete question.

At a certain temperature, the reaction 2NO(g)+Cl_2(g)\rightarrow 2NOCl(g)  has an equilibrium constant Kc of 45.0. A chemist creates a mixture with the following initial concentrations: [NO] = 0.10 M, [Cl₂] = 0.20 M, and [NOCl] = 0.30 M. What will happen as the reaction begins?

A. [NOCl] will increase.

B. [NOCl] will decrease.

C. [NOCl] will stay the same.

D. There is not enough information to answer the question.

Answer : The correct option is, (C) [NOCl] will stay the same.

Explanation :

Reaction quotient (Q) : It is defined as the measurement of the relative amounts of products and reactants present during a reaction at a particular time.

The given balanced chemical reaction is,

2NO(g)+Cl_2(g)\rightarrow 2NOCl(g)

The expression for reaction quotient will be :

Q=\frac{[NOCl]^2}{[NO]^2[Cl_2]}

In this expression, only gaseous or aqueous states are includes and pure liquid or solid states are omitted.

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get

Q=\frac{(0.30)^2}{(0.10)^2\times (0.20)}=45

The given equilibrium constant value is, K_c=45

Equilibrium constant : It is defined as the equilibrium constant. It is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants.

There are 3 conditions:

When Q>K_c that means product > reactant. So, the reaction is reactant favored.

When Q that means reactant > product. So, the reaction is product favored.

When Q=K_c that means product = reactant. So, the reaction is in equilibrium.

From the above we conclude that, the Q=K_c that means product = reactant. So, the reaction is in equilibrium that means the concentration of NOCl will stay the same.

Hence, the correct option is, (C) [NOCl] will stay the same.

Unknown element x is a metal that ionically bonds to sulfur.is the formula, x3s feasible? why or why not?a)it is feasible. the t
nasty-shy [4]
The correct answer is:
d) No, it is not feasible. three metallic ions cannot provide the exact number of electrons that one sulfur needs for the ionic bond.
Because Sulfur is divalent so it need to gain 2 electrons from metal so if we have 3 metals they can't provide only two electrons only.

How do you know that volume of a diamond is 15.1g
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

Density = mass / volume,  

        therefore volume = mass / density. Note that 1 mL = 1 cubic centimeter.

Explanation:

Volume = 15.1g / 3.52g/mL = 4.3mL = 4.3 cubic centimeters.

then a  diamond has a density of 3.52 g/mL.

How many Joules does it take to raise 1 g of water 2°C
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

Quantitative experiments show that 4.18 Joules of heat energy are required to raise the temperature of 1g of water by 1°C. Thus, a liter (1000g) of water that increased from 24 to 25°C has absorbed 4.18 J/g°C x 1000g x 1°C or 4180 Joules of energy.
