Problem

For a reaction at 298 K, the equilibrium constant is K=0.80K=0.80. Which of the following best describes the composition of the equilibrium mixture? a) Products dominate the equilibrium mixture because K<1K<1 indicates the forward reaction is spontaneous. b) The reaction fails to establish equilibrium because any KK value other than 1 drives the reaction to completion. c) Reactants and products are present in comparable amounts because ΔG∘\Delta G^{\circ} is near zero. d) Reactants dominate the equilibrium mixture because ΔG∘\Delta G^{\circ} is large and positive.
