PLEASE HELP!! The equilibrium constant is 0.090 at a particular temperature for the reaction: H2O(g) + Cl2O(g) ⇌ 2HOCl(g) Use this information to decide what will happen, given the following sets of initial conditions: Will the reaction shift to the left, to the right or will the system be at equilibrium? PH2O = 480 torr, PCl2O = 14 torr, PHOCl = 24.6 torr A 1.0 L flask contains 1.15 mol H2O, 0.078 mol Cl2O and 0.09 mol HOCl. A 2.0 L flask contains 0.56 mol H2O, 0.0005 mol Cl2O and 0.31 mol HOCl. PH2O = 198 torr,PCl2O = 64.4 torr, PHOCl = 23 torr

OpenStudy (jfraser):

each different set of conditions allows you to find the \(reaction \space quotient\), \(Q\), which is calculated exactly the same way as the equilibrium constant. The value of Q will tell you where the reaction currently sits relative to equilibrium
