The equilibrium constant for the reaction `N_(2)(g)+O_(2)(g) hArr 2NO(g)` is `4.0xx10^(-4)` at `2000 K`. In the presence of a catalyst, the equilibrium is attained `10` times faster. Therefore, the equilibrium constant in presence of the catalyst at `2000 K` is

A

`4xx10^(-4)`

B

`40xx10^(-4)`

C

`4xx10^(-2)`

D

Difficult to compute without more data

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Equilibrium constant will remain same, because catalyst increases both the forward reaction as well as backward reaction.
