Write the effect of temperature on Equilibrium constant.

1 Answer

Answer :

Ans. The value of Equilibrium constant changes with the temperature. The increase in rate depends upon activation energy .As the activation energy are different for forward & backward direction .So temperature will increase the rate to different extent in forward & backward direction. As K= Kf/ Kb ,so the state of equilibrium will be altered.
