Solution
The correct option is C Statement 1 is correct but Statement 2 is not correct. We have, Keq=KfKb, Kf→ rate constant of forward reaction
Kb→ rate constant of backward reaction
Now, if Keq is very large.
⇒Kf>>Kb
So, rate of forward reaction will be much more than rate of backward reaction. So, products will be more favoured.
