(Kc) = [Cl 2 ][SO 2 ] ;
Ignore state symbols.
Square brackets [ ] required for the equilibrium expression.

value of Kc increases;
[SO2Cl2] increases;
decrease in temperature favours (forward) reaction which is exothermic;
Do not allow ECF.
no effect;
catalyst increases the rate of forward and reverse reactions
(equally) / catalyst decreases activation energies (equally);

decrease;
heat is a product/reaction is exothermic so equilibrium
moves to left / OWTTE;
