Question

Assertion: The equilibrium constant is fixed and a characteristic for any given chemical reaction at a specified temperature.

Reason: The composition of the final equilibrium mixture at a particular temperature depends upon the starting amount of reactants.

(a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A

(b) Both A and R are true but R is not correct explanation of A

(c) A is true but R is false

(d) A and R are false

Answer 1

Correct option  (c) A is true but R is false

Explanation:

The equilibrium constant is ah ways fixed and is a characteristic of a reaction at specified temperature. lt defines the composition of the final equilibrium mixture of that reaction, regardless of the starting amount of reactants and products.
