Qc value is determined by the concentrations of reactants and products at a particular moment rather than by the temperature, but Kc value stays the same at a certain temperature regardless of the concentrations.

Question

Here is the correct statement for Qc and Kc for a certain reaction. Qc value is determined by the concentrations of reactants and products at a particular moment rather than by the temperature, but Kc value stays the same at a certain temperature regardless of the concentrations.

For the following reaction at 20oC, the Qc value at a particular time is equal to 3.5 x 105

3A(aq) + B(aq) ⟶ 2C(aq) + D(aq)                                    Kc = 5.5 x 105

If the reaction temperature is suddenly increased to 40oC without affecting the concentration of each component in the system, which of the following is a correct prediction about Qc and Kc at this particular time at 40oC?

 

  
Q ≠ 3.5 x 105K = 5.5 x 105
 
 
 
 
 
  
Q ≠ 3.5 x 105K ≠ 5.5 x 105
 
 
  
Q = 3.5 x 105K ≠ 5.5 x 105
