Matching Thermodynamic Equations with Process Types
Published:
Match List-I (Equations) with List-II (Type of process) and select the correct option. List-I (Equations): a. $K_p > Q$, b. $\Delta G^\circ < RT \ln Q$, c. $K_p = Q$, d. $T > \frac{\Delta H}{\Delta S}$. List-II (Type of process): (i) Non-spontaneous, (ii) Equilibrium, (iii) Spontaneous and endothermic, (iv) Spontaneous.

Step by Step Written Solution
Hi Mohammad, let's solve this thermodynamics and equilibrium matching problem together.
Matching List-I with List-II
Let's analyze each equation in List-I one by one to determine the corresponding process in List-II.
Step-by-Step Analysis
| List-I | List-II |
|---|---|
| a. $K_p > Q$ | -- |
| b. $\Delta G^\circ < RT \ln Q$ | -- |
| c. $K_p = Q$ | -- |
| d. $T > \Delta H / \Delta S$ | -- |
First, for (a), if the equilibrium constant K_p is greater than the reaction quotient Q, the reaction is not yet at equilibrium and will proceed spontaneously in the forward direction.
For (c), when K_p equals Q, the reaction has reached equilibrium, where the rate of the forward reaction equals the rate of the backward reaction.
