Answer:
Forward direction
Explanation:
The reaction quotient of an equilibrium reaction measures relative amounts of the products and the reactants present during the course of the reaction at particular point in the time.
Q < Kc , reaction will proceed in forward direction.
Q > Kc , reaction will proceed in backward direction.
Q = Kc , reaction at equilibrium.
It is the ratio of the concentration of the products and the reactants each raised to their stoichiometric coefficients. The concentration of the liquid and the gaseous species does not change and thus is not written in the expression.
Thus, for the reaction:
The expression is:
Given,
[Cl⁻] = 0.50 mol/L; [ClO₃⁻] = 0.32 mol/L; [ClO⁻] = 0.24 mol/L
So,
Q = 5.7870
Since, Q < Kc ()
The reaction will go in forward direction.
