is Keq = 230 at 300 °C. At equilibrium, __________.
A) reactants predominate
B) products predominate
C) only products are present
D) roughly equal amounts of products and reactants are present
E) only reactants are present
please explain the answer you choose.

Answer 1

If the Keq is >1, then products must be greater than reactants. If Keq <1, then reactants must be greater than products.

Answer 2

Products predominate
