Question

If the value of an equilibrium constant for a reaction is 2 × 107, then at equilibrium the system will contain


Mostly products

Mostly reactants

Only reactants​

Answer 1

At equilibrium the system will contain  Mostly products

- If the value of equilibrium constant K > 10³,then the products will predominate over the reactants

- It means that if K is very large, then the reaction is about to complete.

- The given value of the equilibrium constant K is 2 × 10⁷ which is very high.

-  Hence, the reaction mixture mostly contains products.
