How do you solve for Kc, equilibrium concentration?

You would have your products over reactants and raise them to their stoichiometric coefficients. I hope this helps!

Your equation for finding Kc is the concentration of the products/concentration of reactants, with each raised to an exponent equal to their corresponding coefficients in the reaction.

For example:
H2(g) + Br2(g) <--> 2 HBr(g)

Kc = [HBr]^2 /[H2][Br2]

*Remember that solids and liquids aren't included in the equilibrium constant expression.
