Consider the following image representing an equilibrium mixture. The black spheres represent the reactant and the gray spheres the product. If this reaction was started with only reactants, at equilibrium about 67% of the reactant was converted to product.

Question

Consider the following image representing an equilibrium mixture. The black spheres represent the reactant and the gray spheres the product.  If this reaction was started with only reactants, at equilibrium about 67% of the reactant was converted to product.

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The image shows a mixture with both reactants and products present, indicating that an equilibrium has been reached. The statement that 67% of the reactant has been converted to product at equilibrium is consistent with Le Chatelier's principle, which predicts that a system at equilibrium will favor the side with less of the product. Therefore, option A is true.
