Answer
The equilibrium constant K for a reaction at equilibrium is expressed in terms of the concentrations of the reactants and products raised to the power of their coefficients in the balanced equation. For the reaction:
2ClF(g)⇌3F2(g)+Cl2(g)
The expression for the equilibrium constant is given by:
K=[ClF]2[F2]3[Cl2]
Thus, the correct answer is D: [ \frac{2[ClF]}{[F_2]^3} ], which represents the reciprocal of the derived expression.
