Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The thermodynamically favorable direction for the given equilibrium must be explained.

Concept introduction:

  • Reaction Quotient (Qc) is the ratio of the concentration of products to that of reactants at any time.
  • If equilibrium constant is greater than that of reaction quotient then a reaction is preferred in the forward reaction and if equilibrium constant is lesser than reaction quotient then the reaction is preferred in the backward direction.
