Practice mode Chemical Equilibrium

The equilibrium constant for A + B ⇌ C is Kc. What is the equilibrium constant for C ⇌ A + B at the same temperature?

Correct answer D. 1/Kc

Explanation

Reversing an equation inverts the expression: products become reactants. Hence the equilibrium constant for the reverse reaction is the reciprocal, 1/Kc.
