Question

Which of the following is consistent with a reaction that proceeds spontaneously in the reverse direction (assume all variables are in terms of the forward direction only) A) ($\Delta$G) > 0, Q < K B) ($\Delta$G^$\circ$) = 0, Q = K C) ($\Delta$G) < 0, Q > K D) ($\Delta$G^$\circ$) > 0, Q = K E) ($\Delta$G) > 0, Q > K

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

For a reaction to proceed spontaneously in the reverse direction, the Gibbs free energy change ($\Delta$G) must be greater than 0, and the reaction quotient (Q) must be greater than the equilibrium constant (K).
