Answer: Option (4) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
It is known that equilibrium constant is represented as follows for any general reaction.
K =
As equilibrium constant is directly proportional to the concentration of products so more is the value of equilibrium constant more will be the number of products formed.
As a result, more is the time taken by the reaction to reach towards equilibrium. Whereas smaller is the value of equilibrium constant more rapidly it will reach towards the equilibrium.
Thus, we can conclude that cases where K is a very small number will require the LEAST time to arrive at equilibrium.
