Question

The equilibrium constant is ratio of the velocity constant of forward and backward reactions.
If true enter 1, if false enter 0.

Answer 1

The equilibrium constant is ratio of the velocity constant of forward and backward reactions. It is also the ratio between the product of molar concentrations of the products to that of the product of the molar concentrations of the reactants with each concentration term raised to a power equal to stoichiometric coefficient in the balanced chemical equation.

For the general chemical reaction $aA+bB\rightleftharpoons cC+dD$, the equilibrium constant expression is

$K=\frac{K_f}{K_b}=\frac{\left[C{]}^c\right[D{]}^d}{\left[A{]}^a\right[B{]}^b}$

Here, $K_f$ and $K_b$ are the velocity constant of forward and backward reactions respectively.
