Problem

For a reaction at 298 K298\,\text{K} with equilibrium constant K=5.0×103K = 5.0\times10^3, a mixture is prepared such that Q=1.0×10−2Q = 1.0\times10^{-2}. Indicate whether the forward reaction is thermodynamically favored (ΔG<0\Delta G < 0), at equilibrium (ΔG=0\Delta G = 0), or unfavored (ΔG>0\Delta G > 0), and briefly justify your choice.
