Which statement is TRUE for the equilibrium constant?
A) The equilibrium constant is independent of the initial concentrations of reactants and products.
B) When the equilibrium constant is greater than one, the standard free energy change for the reaction favors production of reactants.
C) The equilibrium constant does not vary with changes in pH.
D) The equilibrium constant does not vary with changes in temperature.
E) A relatively small change in the equilibrium constant is associated with a large change in the standard free-energy change.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The equilibrium constant (Kc) is a constant value that depends only on the temperature and independent of the initial concentrations of reactants and products. The equilibrium constant describes the ratio of the concentrations of products to reactants at equilibrium.
