Shouldn't the Delta G for the forward rxn be negative and the delta G for the reverse rxn be positive? Thanks!

    Hi! Thanks for asking! The explanation for (D) is correct as written. That explanation is saying that we have to change conditions away from the standard conditions mentioned in the question so that the reverse reaction ends up being spontaneous.
