Solution
The correct option is B Both Statement 1 and Statement 2 are correct, but Statement 2 is NOT the correct explanation of Statement 1. By Van't Hoff equation,
dlnKCdT=△U0RT2→ change in internal energy of reaction at standard states
↙↓
universal temperature
gas constant
So, by above equation, we can say that KC is dependent on temperature.
Now, ln(KC)1(KC)2=△H2.303R(T2−T1T1T2)
Now, as temperature increases, the molecule will gain higher energy so there will be more no. of collisions among the particle reacting.
