Assertion: A dynamic equilibrium means a balance between the tendency towards minimum and mazimum ethalpies.
Reason: The reaction having `Delta H = -ve` occurs form high ethalpy side to low enthalpy side and the reaction `Delta H = +ve` occurs form low enthalpy side to high enthalpy side.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If assertion is false but reason is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
A+B `hArr` C+D, `Delta H = +ve`, then
C+D `hArr` A+B, `Delta H = -ve`, i.e., a balance in enthalpies is noticed at equilibrium.

The change in entropy, Delta S is positive for an endothermic reaction, if enthalpy change Delta H occurs at the same temperature T, then the reaction is feasible

Read the following paragraph and answer the questions given below , Stable equilibrium is of various type . Mechanical equilibrium is achieved when all particles are at rest and total potential energy of the system is minimum . At any stage where particles are at rest but the system is not at stabel equilibrium as it can reduce its potential energy by reverting to another position, is called metastable equilibrium . Thermal equilibrium is result from the absence of temperature gradients in the system. chemical equilibrium is obtained when no further reaction occurs between reacting substances, i.e forward and reverse rates of reaction are equal. when steam with solid iron at high temperature Fe_3O_4(s) and hydrogen gas are produced . But the reaction never goes to completion. this is because as the products are formed the reaction proceeds in reverse direction and when rate of reverse reaction is equal to rate of forward reaction , the concentration of reactants and products become constant and equilibrium is reached. The primary objective of the passage is
