The equilibrium constants of a reaction ...

The equilibrium constants of a reaction at `27^(@)C` and aet `127^(@)C` are `1.6xx10^(-3)` and `7.6xx10^(-2)` respectively. Is the reaction exothermic or endothermic?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`1.6xx10^(-3)lt7.6xx10^(-2)`
As `K_(c)` value increases with increase in temperature the reaction is endothermic since endothermic reactions are more favourable at high temperatures.
