Consider the following substitution reaction with a ΔG° value of -91.1 kJ/mole.

HO- + CH3Cl ↔ CH3OH + Cl-

Given this information which of the following statements must be true?
(R = 8.315 J/mole K)

The Keq at 25°C for this reaction is very large, in other words this reaction proceeds to near completion as written, left to right under standard conditions.

At 250°C the equilibrium concentration of products and reactants is nearly the same

At 250°C the equilibrium concentration is shifted right in favor of the products (CH3OH and Cl-). In other words there is more product than at 25°C.

The Keq at 25°C for this reaction is very small (<1), in other words this reaction does not proceed from left to right but rather is favored from right to left under standard conditions .

Both "The Keq at 25°C for this reaction is very large, in other words this reaction proceeds to near completion as written, left to right under standard conditions" and "At 250°C the equilibrium concentration is shifted right in favor of the products (CH3OH and Cl-). In other words there is more product than at 25°C" are correct.
