5 0

Answer:

<u>Distance:</u> 9 km

<u>Displacement:</u> 3 km

Explanation:

Distance takes into account the entire path that, in this case, Preston walked, while displacement, considers only the difference between the initial and final point.

In the picture, the different paths represent as a whole the distance he covered (5+3+1), whereas, the start and final point represent displacement (3-0)

The terms Q and K refer to reaction components at non-equilibrium and equilibrium conditions, respectively. For a forward reacti
daser333 [38]

Answer:

The value of Q must be less than that of K.

Explanation:

The difference of K and Q can be understood with the help of an example as follows

         A ⇄ B

In this reaction A is converted into B but after some A is converted , forward reaction stops At this point , let equilibrium concentration of B be [B] and let equilibrium concentration of A be [A]

In this case ratio of  [B] and  [A]  that is

K =  [B] / [A] which is called equilibrium constant.

But if we measure the concentration of A and B ,before equilibrium is reached , then the ratio of the concentration of A and B will be called Q. As reaction continues concentration of A increases and concentration of B decreases. Hence Q tends to be equal to K.

Q = [B] / [A] . It is clear that Q < K before equilibrium.

If Q < K , reaction will proceed towards equilibrium or forward reaction will

proceed .
