Account for the change when NO2Cl is added using the reaction quotient Qc. Match the words in the left column to the appropriate blanks in the sentences on the right. 1. decreases
2. loss
3. Increases
4. greater
A. Disturbing the equilibrium by adding NO2ClQc to a valuethan Kc.
B. To reach a new state of equilibrium, Qc thereforewhich means that the denominator of the expression for Qc.
C. To accomplish this, the concentration of reagents, and the concentration of products.

A. Disturbing the equilibrium by adding NO2Cl decreases Qc to a value less than Kc.

B. To reach a new state of equilibrium, Qc therefore increases which means that the denominator of the expression for Qc decreases.

C. To accomplish this, the concentration of reagents decreases, and the concentration of products increases.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the equilibrium reaction:

Whose equilibrium expression is:

The proper matching is:

A. Disturbing the equilibrium by adding NO2Cl decreases Qc to a value less than Kc, since the denominator becomes greater, therefore, Qc decreases.

B. To reach a new state of equilibrium, Qc therefore increases which means that the denominator of the expression for Qc decreases, since the lower the denominator, the higher Qc as it has the concentration of reactants.

C. To accomplish this, the concentration of reagents decreases, and the concentration of products increases, since the reactants must be consumed in order to reestablish equilibrium by shifting the reaction towards the products.

Best regards.
