Chemical Equilibrium

14) K_eq = 0.0752          T = 480°C

      2Cl₂(g) + 2H₂O(g) 4HCl(g) + O₂(g)

      (a) 4HCl(g) + O₂(g) 2Cl₂(g) + 2H₂O(g)    

            K_eq' = 1/K_eq = 1/0.0752 = 13.3

      (b) Cl₂(g) + H₂O(g) 2HCl(g) + 1/2O₂(g)

            K_eq' = K_eq^1/2 = (0.0752)^1/2 = 0.274

      (c) 2HCl(g) + 1/2O₂(g) Cl₂(g) + H₂O(g)

           K'_eq = K_eq^-1 = (0.274)^-1 = 3.65
