If I'm trying to find the Kc for A + B --> C and we know that A is in excess, pushing the reaction to the right. At equilibrium, B is 0 essentially. My question is for calculating Kc = [C]/[A][ B ] do we use the equation Kc = [C]/[A] because [ B ]is essentially 0 at equilibrium?

So you are saying

[tex]0 \times large~number = large~number[/tex]

Does it look like something that can be true?
