Chemistry A level equilibria problem?
On heating, X decomposes reversibly according to the equation:
X (g) ↔ Y (g) + Z (g)
This reaction was allowed to reach equilibrium.
(a) When 1.00 moles of X was heated at 200'C in a container of volume 25.0dm3, the equilibrium mixture was found to contain 0.200 mole of Y. Calculate the value of Kc at this temperature.
if anyone can help, much appreciated :)

........................ .X (g) ↔ Y (g) + Z (g)
initially ..............1.00..........0...........0
change...............0.2...........0.2.....…0.2
At equilibrium .....0.8..........0.2.........0.2
concentration.......0.8/25.. 0.2/25... 0.2/25
Kc = [Y] [Z] / [X]
......= {(0.2/25) (0.2/25)} / (0.8 /25)
......= 2.0 x 10^-3
