Chapter 8, Problem 8.91E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The statement that best describes the equilibrium condition for the given reaction is to be predicted.

Concept Introduction:

Exothermic reaction is a type of chemical reaction in which the heat is released during the reaction. In an exothermic reaction, the system loses energy whereas the surroundings gain energy. In an endothermic reaction, the heat is gained by the system. The equilibrium condition for any type of reaction is recognized by the constant concentration of reactants and products. The numerical representation of equilibrium constant is given below as,

$K=\frac{\left[\text{Products}\right]}{\left[\text{Reactants}\right]}$
