If the Equilibrium Constant K_c Is Greater Than 1 for a Given

question 72

Multiple Choice

If the equilibrium constant K_c is greater than 1 for a given reaction, predict the signs of ΔG° and E° at the same temperature.

• A)Δ G° > 0; E° > 0
• B)ΔG° < 0; E° < 0
• C)Δ G° > 0; E° < 0
• D)Δ G° < 0; E° > 0
• E)Cannot predict - it depends on the temperature.
