In an analysis of interhalogen reactivity, 0.350 mol ICl was placed in a 5.00 L flask and allowed to decompose at a high temperature. 2 ICl(g) I2(g) + Cl2(g)
Calculate the equilibrium concentrations of I2, Cl2, and ICl. (Kc = 0.110 at this temperature.)
I2 M
Cl2 M
ICl M

[ICl] = 0.0420 M

[I₂]  = [Cl₂] = 0.0140 M

Explanation:

Step 1: Calculate the initial concentration of ICl

[ICl] = 0.350 mol / 5.00 L = 0.0700 M

Step 2: Make an ICE chart

        2 ICl(g) ⇄ I₂(g) + Cl₂(g)

I        0.0700     0         0

C        -2x          +x        +x

E    0.0700-2x      x          x

The concentration equilibrium constant (Kc) is:

Kc = 0.110 = [I₂] [Cl₂] / [ICl]² = x² / (0.0700-2x)² = (x/0.0700-2x)²

0.332 = x/0.0700-2x

x = 0.0140

The concentrations at equilbrium are:

[ICl] = 0.0700-2x = 0.0700-0.0280 = 0.0420 M

[I₂]  = [Cl₂] = x = 0.0140 M

i think so it’s will be b yes i believe its

the answer is b. dilution
