question

Given the equation A(g)<-->B(g)+2C(g). At a particulate temperature, K=1.4 x 10^5

If you mixed 1.2 mol B, 0.050 mol C, and 0.003 mol A in a 1 container, in which direction would the reaction initially proceed?

-the mixture is in the equilibrium state

-to the left

-to the right

-cannot tell from the information given
