If the initial concentrations of reactants in a reaction increase then the equilibrium constant ____________(a) also increases(b) decreases(c) remains constant(d) may increase or decreaseI got this question during an interview.This intriguing question comes from Law of Chemical Equilibrium and Equilibrium Constant topic in portion Equilibrium of Chemistry – Class 11

Answer»

The correct answer is (c) REMAINS constant

Easy explanation: The equilibrium constant of a chemical REACTION is INDEPENDENT of the INITIAL concentrations of the reactants. So when the initial concentrations of the reactants INCREASE in a reaction the equilibrium constant remains the same.
