Question
Predict which of the following reaction will have the appreciable concentration of reactants and products:
- \[\ce{Cl2 (g) ⇌ 2Cl (g)}\] Kc = 5 ×10–39
- \[\ce{Cl2 (g) + 2NO (g) ⇌ 2NOCl (g)}\] Kc = 3.7 × 108
- \[\ce{Cl2 (g) + 2NO2 (g) ⇌ 2NO2Cl (g)}\] Kc = 1.8

Solution
Following conclusions can be drawn from the values of Kc .
- Since the value of Kc is very small, this means that the molar concentration of the products is very small as compared to that of the reactants.
- Since the value of Kc is quite large, this means that the molar concentration of the products is very large as compared to that of the reactants
- Since the value of Kc is 1.8, this means that both the products and reactants have appreciable concentration.
