Direction of Reversible Reactions

AP Chemistry· difficulty 3/5

K = 50 Q = 200 shifts <- reactants products

Which response will the system show?

  • A

    Net forward reaction

  • B

    Net reverse reaction occurs (toward reactants)

    check_circle
  • C

    No change

  • D

    K increases until Q = K

Explanation

Q > K means too many products; the reaction proceeds in the reverse direction, decreasing Q until Q = K.
