NEET Chemistry Chemical Equilibrium Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): The equilibrium constant for the reverse reaction is the inverse of the equilibrium constant for the forward reaction.
Reason (R): The equilibrium constant expression changes when the stoichiometric coefficients of a chemical equation are altered.
Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.
A is true, but R is false.
A is false.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The equilibrium constant for the reverse reaction is indeed the inverse of the forward reaction (K'c = 1/Kc). However, the reason provided is about altering stoichiometric coefficients, which does not explain the inversion of the equilibrium constant.
