Question: The Kc expression for a reaction is written as: Kc = ( [H 2 O] 2 [Cl 2 ] 2 ) / ( [HCl] 4

The Kc expression for a reaction is written as:

Kc = ( [H2O]2 [Cl2]2 ) / ( [HCl]4[O2] )

Which reaction below best corresponds to this Kc expression? ( The = symbol is used to represent equilibrium arrows in the chemical equations.)

A) 2 H2O (l) + 2 Cl2 (g) = 4 HCl (aq) + O2 (g)

B) 2 H2O (g) + 2 Cl2 (g) = 4 HCl (aq) + O2 (g)

C) 4 HCl (aq) + O2 (g) = 2 H2O (g) + 2 Cl2 (g)

D) 4 HCl (aq) + O2 (g) = 2 H2O (l) + 2 Cl2 (g)
