At 2500. K, the equilibrium constant is K c = 20. for the reaction Cl 2 (g)

Question:

At 2500. K, the equilibrium constant is K_c = 20. for the reaction Cl₂(g) + F₂(g) ⇌ 2 ClF(g). An analysis of a reaction vessel at 2500. K revealed the presence of 0.18 mol · L^–1 Cl₂, 0.31 mol · L^–1 F₂, and 0.92 mol · L^–1 ClF. Will ClF tend to form or to decompose as the reaction proceeds toward equilibrium?
