After the initial 1 mL of 0.2 M FeCl3 (aq) and 1 mL of 0.2 M KSCN (aq) were combined it was
then diluted with an additional 130 mL of deionized water. Which way would this dilution
cause the equilibrium to shift? Is a dilution going to be a stress in all situations?

millimols KSCN = mL x M = 0.2
mmols Fecl3 = 0.2

M KSCN = mmols/mL = 0.2/130 = ?
M FeCl3 = 0.2/130 mL = ?

mmols didn't change. M didn't change. Why would the equilibrium shift?
