Question
For a reversible reaction aA + bB ⇋ cC + dD ; the variation of K with temperature is given by log 
then
thenOptions
A.K2 > K1 if T2 > T1 for an endothermic change
B.K2 < K1 if T2 > T1 for an endothermic change
C.K2 > K1 if T2 > T1 for an exothermic change
D.K2 < K1 if T2 > T1 for an exothermic change
Solution
For endothermic reaction, ᐃHo is positive so, if T2 > T1 then K2 > K1.
For exothermic reaction, ᐃHo is negative so, if T2 > T1 then K2 < K1.
For exothermic reaction, ᐃHo is negative so, if T2 > T1 then K2 < K1.
