(a)
Interpretation:
It should be determined that whether or not the equilibrium will favour product over reactants under the given condition.
Concept Introduction:
Equilibrium constant: At equilibrium the ratio of products to reactants has a constant value. And it is represented by the letter K.
For a general reaction,
The equilibrium constant
