Solution

On reversing a reaction equilibrium (Δn0), the numerical value of Kc and its units both are reversed.
For example, consider a reaction A2B with [A]=x M,[B]=y M. The equilibrium constant expression is
Kc=[B]2[A]=(y M)2x M=y2x M.
Now, the above reaction is reversed.
2BA
The value of the equilibrium constant is Kc=[A][B]2=x M(y M)2=xy2 M1.
