Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Metals are the substances which donate electrons to complete their octet. They are malleable and ductile in nature. They are able to conduct heat and electricity. Metals have shiny surface and sonorous in nature.

Metals are placed at the left and middle of periodic table.

Whereas non-metals are the substances which accept electrons to complete their octet. They are poor conductors of heat and electricity. They are brittle and non-sonorous in nature.

Non-metals are placed at the right of periodic table.

Hence, we can conclude that right or middle of the table because it is a metal best explains the probable position of the substance in the periodic table.

The equilibrium constant for the gas phase reaction
stellarik [79]
The equilibrium constant is found by [product]/[reactant]

If the equilibrium constant is very small, such as 4.20 * 10^-31, then that means at equilibrium there is very little product and a lot of reactant.
And likewise, if there is a lot of product formed, and very little reactant, then the K value will be very large, which tells us that it is predominantly product.

At equilibrium, for any reaction, there will always be some reactant and some product present. There cannot be zero reactant or zero product. Also keep in mind that the equilibrium constant is dependent on temperature.

At equilibrium, for your reaction, it is predominantly reactants.
