Gaseous icl (0.20 mol) was added to a 2.0 l flask and allowed to decompose at a high temperature:

2 icl(g) > i2(g) + cl2(g)

if the equilibrium [icl] = 0.060, what is the value of kc?

0.11
0.33
0.67
0.44

The Kc is 1.36 (but this is not an option, may be the options are wrong, or may be I was .. Thanks!)

Explanation:

Let's think all the situation.

               2 ICl(g)   ⇄   I₂(g)    +    Cl₂(g)

Initially      0.20              -               -

Initially I have only 0.20 moles of reactant, and nothing of products. In the reaction, an x amount of compound has reacted.

React          x              x/2               x/2

Because the ratio is 2:1, in the reaction I have the half of moles.

So in equilibrium I will have

           (0.20 - x)          x/2             x/2

Notice that I have the concentration in equilibrium so:

0.20 - x = 0.060

x = 0.14

So in equilibrium I have formed 0.14/2 moles of I₂ and H₂ (0.07 moles)

Finally, we have to make, the expression for Kc and remember that must to be with concentration in M (mol/L).

As we have a volume of 2L, the values must be /2

Kc = ([I₂]/2 . [H₂]/2) / ([ICl]/2)²

Kc = (0.07/2 . 0.07/2) / (0.060/2)²

Kc = 1.225x10⁻³ / 9x10⁻⁴

Kc = 1.36
