Expert Solution
Step 1

Since equilibrium constant depends only on temprature not on volume so 

The value of Kremains same.

Since for the above reactions number of moles of gaseous species is same on both reactant and product side i.e ∆n = 0 so there will be no affect of changing volume on equilibrium. 

Hence Qremains same as that of Kc.
