Question

ΔG° = 91.7 kJ/mol at 25°C for the following process. Which of the following statements is correct when [Ag+] = 1.1 × 10–9 M and [I] = 1.5 × 10–9 M. (R = 8.314 J/K • mol)

AgI(s) ⟷ Ag+(aq) + I(aq)


A) Under the current conditions, ΔG > 0. Hence, this reaction will go in the forward direction to reach equilibrium.

B) This reaction favors the reactants because Δ G ∘> 0

C) K > 1, because ΔG < 0.
D) K > 1, because ΔG° > 0.
E) None of the choices is correct.
