For a given reaction,$2 A \rightleftharpoons B + C$,the equilibrium constant is $2 \times 10^{-3}$. If at any given time the composition of the reaction mixture is $[A]=[B]=[C]=6 \times 10^{-5} \ M$; predict in which direction the reaction will proceed and the correct value for reaction quotient.

  • A
    Forward direction and $1.0$
  • B
    Backward direction and $1.0$
  • C
    Forward direction and $3 \times 10^{-5}$
  • D
    Backward direction and $3 \times 10^{-5}$
