Question

For a reversible reaction, if the concentrations of the reactants are doubled, then the equilibrium constant value _________.

• A. gets doubled
• B. gets halved
• C. remains the same
• D. increases four times

Answer 1

The correct option is C remains the same

The magnitude of the equilibrium constant is not affected by the changes in concentrations of reactants and products.
Hence, for a reversible reaction, if the concentrations of the reactants are doubled, then the equilibrium constant value remains the same.
