Part D
For a reaction
For the reaction
aA + bB = cC + dD
CO(g) + H2O(g) = H2(g) + CO2(g), K = 4.24 at 800 K
the equilibrium constant K is defined as the ratio of
products to reactants at equilibrium:
what can be said about this reaction at this temperature?
K
[C]°D]*
• View Available Hint(s)
[A]*[B]*
Because K represents the ratio of products to reactants,
the magnitude of K is an indicator of the levels of
products and reactants present when the reaction is at
equilibrium. Some chemical reactions proceed almost
fully to product, whereas other chemicals hardly react
with each other at all, or react so as to have significant
amounts of both reactants and products at equilibrium.
O The equilibrium lies far to the right.
O The reaction will proceed very slowly.
O The reaction contains significant amounts of products and reactants at equilibrium.
O The equilibrium lies far to the left.](https://content.bartleby.com/qna-images/question/87faf35d-bdff-4fde-b9fe-6459d170f061/c152e5b9-d46e-4e64-87a4-fda1c1c6a23a/dake6y6_thumbnail.jpeg)
