What does it indicate having a higher equilibrium constant?(a) reaction occurs faster(b) rate of backward reaction is faster(c) both the backward and forward reactions are equal(d) reaction may be slower than usualThis question was addressed to me during an interview.I'd like to ask this question from Law of Chemical Equilibrium and Equilibrium Constant in section Equilibrium of Chemistry – Class 11

Answer»

Correct OPTION is (a) reaction occurs faster

The EXPLANATION: As we know that the equilibrium constant is the ratio of the forward reaction RATE to the backward reaction rate. Having higher equilibrium constant depicts that the reaction that is forward occurring faster then the backward one and the EXTENSION of completion of the reaction is more.
