The progress of the reaction H2(g) + Br2(g) 2 2 HBr(g) can be monitored visually by following changes in the color of the reaction mixture (Br2 is reddish brown, and H2 and HBr are colorless). A gas mixture is prepared at 700 K, in which 0.40 atm is the initial partial pressure of both H2 and Br, and 0.90 atm is the initial partial pressure of HBr. The color of this mixture then fades as the reaction progresses toward equilibrium. Give a condition that must be satisfied by the equilibrium constant K (for example, it must be greater than or smaller than a given number).
