1). One must compare the trial product Q with K.

If Q equals K the system is at Equilibrium.
If Q is less than K, then the reaction will shift to the
right and produce more product.
If Q is greater than K, then the reaction will shift to
the left.

Q is trial product:

[ PCl 5 ] 0.00500
=
[ Cl 2 ].[ PCl 3 ] [ 0.0240 ].[ 0.0420 ]

= 4.96
Since 4.96 is greater than 0.18 the reaction proceeds to
 the left by shifting left, PCl 5 will get smaller and Cl 2
and
PCl 3 will get larger.

2). MgF2 (S) Mg2+ (aq) + 2 F- (aq)

KSP = ( Mg2+ ).( F

- 2
)

3). Given the solubility of MgF2 (S) is 8.4 x 10-7M

KSP = 8.4 x 10-7 [ 2 X 8.4 X 10-7 ]2

=4 X [ 8.4 X 10-7 ]3

= 2.4 X 10-18
