Question

For the reaction A(g) + B(g) ⇌ C(g) + D(g); ΔH = -QKJ
The equilibrium constant cannot be disturbed by

• A. Addition of A
• B. Addition of D
• C. Increasing of pressure
• D. Increasing of temperature

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

The equilibrium constant of a reaction is dependent on the temperature and the concentrations of reactants and products. Increasing pressure generally affects the position of equilibrium for reactions involving gases, but it does not affect the equilibrium constant itself. Changes in pressure typically shift the equilibrium to favor the side with fewer moles of gas, but the constant remains unchanged. Thus, increasing pressure does not disturb the equilibrium constant.

The correct answer is (C) : Increasing of pressure.
