Question

Predict the direction of the reaction from the comparison of $Q_c,K_c$. Mark the incorrect statement.

• A. If $Q_c<K_c$, reaction goes from left to right.
• B. If $Q_c=K_c$, reaction goes from right to left.
• C. If $Q_c>K_c$, net reaction goes from right to left.
• D. If $Q_c=K_c$, reactants and products are at equilibrium.

Answer 1

The correct option is B If $Q_c=K_c$, reaction goes from right to left.

If $Q_c<K_c$, net reaction goes from left to right

If $Q_c>K_c$ , net reaction goes from right to left.

If $Q_c=K_c$ at equilibrium
Hence, option B is the incorrect one.
