The values of equilibrium constant (K) o...

The values of equilibrium constant (K) of a reaction at `25^(@)C` and `50^(@)C` are `2xx10^(-4) and 2xx10^(-2)` respectively. Is the reaction an exothermic or an endothermic reaction?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

With the increase in temperature, the value of equilibrium constant increases in case of an endothermic reaction, while it decreases in case of an exothermic reaction. For the reaction `K(50^(@)C)` is greater than `K(25^(@)C)`, indicating endothermic nature o the reaction.
