Questions and Answers

What defines chemical equilibrium?

  • When all reactants are converted to products
  • When the rate of the forward reaction is faster than the reverse reaction
  • When there is no conversion happening
  • When the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal (correct)

What is the Law of Mass Action?

  • The value of the equilibrium constant changes with temperature
  • The equilibrium constant expression varies at different temperatures
  • The equilibrium constant expression is constant at a given temperature (correct)
  • Equilibrium can only be approached from one direction

Which factor does the equilibrium constant, Kc, depend on?

  • Stoichiometric coefficients of reactants and products (correct)
  • Temperature
  • Time taken for the reaction to reach equilibrium
  • Initial concentrations of reactants and products
