Explanation / Answer

2NOBr(g) <- - - - -> 2NO(g) + Br2(g)

Kc = [NO]2[Br2]/[NOBr]2 = 6.50×10-3

Qc = [NO]2[Br2]/[NOBr]2

Qc = (0.0191M)2(0.0413M)/(0.0802M)2

Qc = 2.34 ×10-3

Qc < Kc

Qc is not equal to Kc

Therefore,

The reaction is not at equillibrium

Qc is less than Kc

Therefore,

The reaction

A) must run in the farward direction to reach the equillibrium
