Question

If KC = 6.4x10^–7 for the reaction system 2CO₂(g) ↔ 2 CO(g) + O₂(g)
state whether each of the following mixtures is at equilibrium. Ifthe mixture is not at equilibrium, tell whether the reaction willshift to the left (favor reactant) or to the right (favor product)to reach equilibrium.
(a) [CO₂] = 5.3x10^–2 M; [CO] =3.6x10^–4 M; [O₂] = 2.4x10^–3 M

(b) [CO2] = 1.47x10^–2 M; [CO] = 3.8x10^–3M; [O₂] = 6.5x10^–4 M

(c) [CO2] = 1.03x10^–1 M; [CO] = 2.4x10^–2M; [O₂] = 1.18x10^–5 M
