Consider the following equilibrium reaction at a given temperature: A (aq) + 3 B (aq) ⇌ C (aq) + 2 D (aq) Kc = 178. If initially the concentrations of the chemical species are as follows: [A]o = 0.364 M [B]o = 0.170 M [C]o = 0.132 M [D]o = 0.932 M to which direction will the reaction run to reach equilibrium?

The reaction proceed toward product side or in forward direction.

Explanation:

is the constant of a certain reaction at equilibrium while is the quotient of activities of products and reactants at any stage other than equilibrium of a reaction.

For the given chemical reaction:

The expression of for above equation follows:

We are given:

Putting values in above equation, we get:

We are given:

There are 3 conditions:

As, , the reaction will be favoring product side.

Hence, the reaction proceed toward product side or in forward direction.

smooth muscle is composed of involuntary muscles found within the walls of organs and structures such as the esophagus, stomach, intestines, and blood vessels. those muscles push materials like food or blood through organs. unlike skeletal muscle, smooth muscle can never be under your control.
