The equilibrium constant (K) for the reaction Y→X can be expressed with respect to the concentrations of the reactant and product molecules.Which of the expressions below shows the correct relationship between K, [Y], and [X]?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

For the reaction Y → X, the equilibrium constant K is defined as the concentration of the products divided by the concentration of the reactants when the reaction has reached equilibrium. Therefore, K = [X]/[Y].

The Equilibrium Constant (K) for the Reaction Y→X Can Be
