For the reaction 2hbr(g)⇌h2(g)+br2(g), k= 2.00×10−19 at 298 k what can be said about this reaction at this temperature? hints for the reaction , at 298 what can be said about this reaction at this temperature? the equilibrium lies far to the right. the reaction will proceed very slowly. the reaction contains significant amounts of products and reactants at equilibrium. the equilibrium lies far to the left.

The equilibrium constant k is actually the ratio of the concentration of the products over the concentration of reactants at equilibrium. So if the concentration of products < concentration of reactants, therefore the constant k will be small. But if the concentration of products > concentration of reactants, the constant k will be large. In this case the value is too small (x10^-19), therefore we can say that the reaction favors the reactant side:

the equilibrium lies far to the left
