The Gibbs energy for a reaction Mg(s) + H₂O(g) → MgO(s) + H₂(g) at a particular temperature is AG = -100.0 kJ/mol. At the same time under the sa conditions, A,G° = +341 kJ/mol. Which of the following statements is true? The reaction is at equilibrium and P(H₂O) = P(H₂). The reaction proceeds in the reverse direction to produce more H₂O(g). The reaction proceeds in the forward direction to produce more H₂(g). The reaction is at equilibrium and P(H₂O) > P(H₂). The reaction is at equilibrium and P(H₂O) < P(H2).
