Paragraph:

Thermal decomposition of gaseous \(\mathrm{X}_{2}\) to gaseous \(\mathrm{X}\) at \(298 \mathrm{~K}\) takes place according to the following equation:

\(\mathrm{X}_{2}(\mathrm{~g}) \rightleftharpoons 2 \mathrm{X}(\mathrm{g})\)

The standard reaction Gibbs energy, \(\Delta_{r} G^{\circ}\), of this reaction is positive. At the start of the reaction, there is one mole of \(\mathrm{X}_{2}\) and no \(\mathrm{X}\). As the reaction proceeds, the number of moles of \(\mathrm{X}\) formed is given by \(\beta\). Thus, \(\beta_{\text {equilibrium }}\) is the number of moles of \(\mathrm{X}\) formed at equilibrium. The reaction is carried out at a constant total pressure of \(2\) bar. Consider the gases to behave ideally. (Given : \(R=0.083 \mathrm{~L}\) bar \(\mathrm{K}^{-1} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}\) )

Question:
The INCORRECT statement among the following, for this reaction, is

1. A Decrease in the total pressure will result in formation of more moles of gaseous X
2. B At the start of the reaction, dissociation of gaseous ${\mathrm{X}}_2$ takes place spontaneously
3. C ${\mathrm{\beta }}_{\mathrm{e}\mathrm{q}\mathrm{u}\mathrm{i}\mathrm{l}\mathrm{i}\mathrm{b}\mathrm{r}\mathrm{i}\mathrm{u}\mathrm{m}}=0.7$
4. D ${\mathrm{K}}_{\mathrm{C}}<1$
