Solution
The correct option is D If Qc>Kc, forward reaction is favoured
The direction in which the reaction is expected to proceed:
Qc>Kc ( Reaction goes from right to left)
In this case, the reaction proceeds in the reverse or backward direction or in the direction of reactants.
Qc<Kc ( Reaction goes from left to right)
In this case, the reaction proceeds in the forward direction or in the direction of products.
Qc=Kc ( Reaction is at equilibrium)
In this case, the reaction is said to be at equilibrium. The reaction is dynamic in nature.
