Consider the following equilibrium: C₂H₆(g) + C₅H₁₂(g)

Consider the following equilibrium: C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>6</sub>(g) + C<sub>5</sub>H<sub>12</sub>(g) CH<sub>4</sub>(g) + C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>14</sub>(g) ; K<sub>p</sub> = 9.57 at 500 K Suppose 22.7 g each of CH<sub>4</sub>,C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>6</sub>,C<sub>5</sub>H<sub>12</sub>,and C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>14</sub> are placed in a 35.0-L reaction vessel at 500 K.Which of the following statements is correct? A) Because Q<sub>c</sub> < K<sub>c</sub>,more products will be formed. B) Because Q<sub>c</sub> = 1,the system is at equilibrium. C) Because Q<sub>c</sub> = 1,more products will be formed. D) Because Q<sub>c</sub> = 1,more reactants will be formed. E) Because Q<sub>c</sub> > K<sub>c</sub>,more reactants will be formed.

Since the equilibrium constant is less than 1, it indicates that the reverse reaction is favored. Therefore, with the initial concentrations being equal, the reaction will proceed in the reverse direction to reach equilibrium. This means more products will be converted to reactants until the system reaches equilibrium.
