Question

Consider the following equilibrium:

C₂H₆(g) + C₅H₁₂(g) CH₄(g) + C₆H₁₄(g); K_p = 9.57 at 500 K

Suppose 22.7 g each of CH₄, C₂H₆, C₅H₁₂, and C₆H₁₄ are placed in a 35.0-L reaction vessel at 500 K. Which of the following statements is correct?

	a.	Because Q_c < K_c, more products will be formed.
	b.	Because Q_c = 1, the system is at equilibrium.
	c.	Because Q_c = 1, more products will be formed.
	d.	Because Q_c = 1, more reactants will be formed.
	e.	Because Q_c > K_c, more reactants will be formed.
