NEET Chemistry (general) Assertion Reason Question
Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Hard-Class 11
Assertion (A): For an exothermic reaction, if the value of ΔrH is large and negative, the equilibrium constant K is expected to be large. | Reason (R): The equilibrium constant K is influenced by both enthalpy change and entropy change.
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 the correct explanation of A.
C
A is true but R is false.
D
A is false but R is true.
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
In exothermic reactions, a large negative ΔrH results in a large equilibrium constant K, as stated in Chunk 4. The value of K is indeed influenced by both enthalpy and entropy changes.
