Answer:

B. Keq = 6.0 x 10-2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information, it turns out possible for us to remember that any equilibrium constant is computed by dividing the concentration of products by that of reactants:


Keq=([Prod])/([Reac])

Thus, a reaction that is reactant-favored will have a Keq>1 because the concentration of reactants prevail over that of products at equilibrium, and thus, the correct answer is B. Keq = 6.0 x 10-2.

Regards!
