The equilibrium constant for a reaction $A + B \rightleftharpoons C + D$ is $1 \times 10^{-3}$ at $298 \ K$ and is $2$ at $273 \ K$. The chemical reaction resulting in the formation of $C$ and $D$ is

  • A
    exothermic
  • B
    endothermic
  • C
    can't be determined
  • D
    there is no relationship between $\Delta H$ and $K$

Consider the reaction equilibrium,$2SO_{2(g)} + O_{2(g)} \rightleftharpoons 2SO_{3(g)}$; $\Delta H^\circ = -198 \ kJ$. On the basis of Le Chatelier's principle,the condition favourable for the forward reaction is

Assertion : $A$ catalyst does not alter the equilibrium constant of a reaction.
Reason : The catalyst forms a complex with the reactants and provides an alternate path with lower energy of activation for the reaction; the forward and the backward reactions are affected to the same extent.
