Problem

At 298 K, the equilibrium constant KcK_c for Cl2(g)+F2(g)⇌2ClF(g)\text{Cl}_2(g)+\text{F}_2(g)\rightleftharpoons2\text{ClF}(g) is 3.1×1023.1\times10^{2}. Determine KcK_c for the reaction written as 6ClF(g)⇌3Cl2(g)+3F2(g)6\text{ClF}(g)\rightleftharpoons3\text{Cl}_2(g)+3\text{F}_2(g) which is obtained by first reversing the original equation and then multiplying all coefficients by 3.
