MCQ
For exothermic reaction, the equilibrium constant
- AIncreases with increase of $P$
- BDecreases with increase of $P$
- CIncreases with increase of temperature
- ✓Decreases with increase of temperature
✓
Answer
Correct option: D.
Decreases with increase of temperature
d
When the temperature of an exothermic reaction is increased, the reaction will proceed in the backward direction, so as to absorb heat and nullify the effect of increasing temperature.
When the temperature of an exothermic reaction is increased, the reaction will proceed in the backward direction, so as to absorb heat and nullify the effect of increasing temperature.
This will decrease the value of the equilibrium constant $K _{ c }$. In other words, the equilibrium will shift to left.
