**Determining Equilibrium Composition in Chemical Reactions**For each of the following reactions, indicate if the equilibrium mixture contains mostly products, mostly reactants, or both reactants and products:1. **Reaction:** \[ 2 \text{H}_2\text{O} (g) \rightleftharpoons 2 \text{H}_2 (g) + \text{O}_2 (g), \quad K_c = 4 \times 10^{-48} \] - **Interpretation:** The equilibrium constant \(K_c\) is extremely small (\(4 \times 10^{-48}\)), indicating that at equilibrium, the concentration of reactants (\(\text{H}_2\text{O}\)) is much higher than the concentration of products (\(\text{H}_2\) and \(\text{O}_2\)). Therefore, the equilibrium mixture contains mostly reactants.2. **Reaction:** \[ \text{O}_2 (g) + 2 \text{SO}_2 (g) \rightleftharpoons 2 \text{SO}_3 (g), \quad K_c = 1.2 \times 10^9 \] - **Interpretation:** The equilibrium constant \(K_c\) is very large (\(1.2 \times 10^9\)), indicating that at equilibrium, the concentration of products (\(\text{SO}_3\)) is much higher than the concentration of reactants (\(\text{O}_2\) and \(\text{SO}_2\)). Therefore, the equilibrium mixture contains mostly products.### Understanding Equilibrium Constants (\(K_c\))- **Small \(K_c\) (< 1):** The system at equilibrium contains more reactants than products.- **Large \(K_c\) (> 1):** The system at equilibrium contains more products than reactants.- **\(K_c\) ≈ 1:** Significant concentrations of both reactants and products are present at equilibrium.These values help chemists predict the direction in which a reaction will proceed to reach equilibrium.
