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

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

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

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