Proton, if I remember correctly. Would you like me to link you to some charts and stuff that'll help you?
Answer:
C) at equilibrium, the concentration of C will be much greater than the concentration of A or B.
Explanation:
A + B ⇌ C; ΔG° = -20 kJ·mol⁻¹
If ΔG is negative, the reaction is spontaneous and position of equilibrium lies to the right, so the equilibrium concentration of C is much greater than that of A or B.
A) is wrong. The molar ratio of A:B is 1:1. If their initial concentrations are 1 mol·L⁻¹, their final concentrations will be equal.
B) is wrong. The position of equilibrium lies to the right, so the concentration of C will be much greater than that of A.
D) and E) are wrong. ΔG says nothing about the rate of a reaction. It deals with the spontaneity and position of equilibrium not the speed at which equilibrium is achieved.
