9. For the reaction 2 CO(g) + Cl₂(g)
(COCI)2(g), K. = 5.37x102 at 298 K. If a vessel is filled
with these gases such that the initial concentrations are [CO] 0.25 M, [Cl₂] = 0.45 M, and
[(COCI)2] 0.73 M, in which direction will a reaction occur and why?
The reaction is at equilibrium because Q = K
Toward reactants because Q< K
Toward products because Q<K
Toward reactants because Q> K
Toward products because Q> K
