Chemistry · Equilibrium involving chemical processes: Law of chemical equilibrium, equilibrium constants (Kp and Kc) and their significance, the significance of Delta G and Delta G° in chemical equilibrium

for this reaction is 10. If 1,2,3,4 mole/litre of and respectively are present i

\( A+B \rightleftharpoons C+D, K_{c} \) for this reaction is 10. If 1,2,3,4 mole/litre of \( A, B, C \) and \( D \) respectively are present in a container at \( 25^{\circ} C, \) the direction of reaction will be:

  • A. from left to right
  • B. from right to left
  • C. reaction is at equilibrium
  • D. unpredictable

Step-by-step solution

Calculate reaction quotient Qc = [C][D]/[A][B] = (3×4)/(1×2) = 6. Compare with Kc = 10: Qc < Kc, so the reaction proceeds forward (left to right) to reach equilibrium.
