Questions and Answers

What is the relationship between the equilibrium constant Kp and Kc?

  • Kp = Kc / (RT)∆n
  • Kp = Kc (RT)∆n (correct)
  • Kp = Kc + (RT)∆n
  • Kp = Kc - (RT)∆n

    • What does a value of K >> 1 indicate about the reaction?

  • The reaction is irreversible
  • The reaction is at equilibrium
  • The reaction is product-favored (correct)
  • The reaction is reactant-favored

    • Why does the equilibrium constant remain the same regardless of the initial concentrations of reactants and products?

  • Because the reaction is at a fixed temperature
  • Because the equilibrium constant is a ratio of concentrations (correct)
  • Because the reaction is reversible
  • Because the reaction rate is independent of concentration

    • What is the significance of ∆n in the equation Kp = Kc (RT)∆n?
