According to Le Chatelier's principle, what happens to the equilibrium constant (K) when the concentration of the reactants is d
oubled? The value of the equilibrium constant (K) is doubled. The value of the equilibrium constant (K) is halved. The value of the equilibrium constant (K) remains the same. The value of the equilibrium constant (K) changes unpredictably.
The value of the equilibrium constant (K) remains the same.
Explanation:
A state of dynamic equilibrium is said to have been achieved in a reaction system when the rate of forward reaction equals the rate of reverse reaction.
At equilibrium, doubling the initial concentration of reactants have no effect on the equilibrium constant K. The equilibrium will rather shift to the left or right as required in order to annul the constraint.
<span>energy provided=13.4 eV
energy released=0.7 eV
energy absorbed = 12.7eV
initial energy= -13.6eV [ground state]
final energy = -13.6+12.7 = -0.9 eV
This energy corresponds to n=4 in hydrogen atom</span>
