What determines how the equilibrium constant K changes with temperature?
AThe sign of ΔH value
BThe total pressure
CThe vessel volume
DThe catalyst amount
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. The sign of ΔH value
K rises with temperature for endothermic reactions and falls for exothermic ones, so the sign of ΔH decides.
