For a reaction taking place in a container in equilibriumwith its surroundings, the effect of temperature on its equilibrium constant K in terms of entropy is described by |

Answer» With increase in temperature, the VALUE of K for endothermic reaction increase because unfavourable changein entropy of the surroundings DECREASES For endothermica reaction , if`T_(surr)` increases, `DeltaS _(surr)`will increase `(:'DeltaH = +ve)` For exothermicreactions K increases with increase of temperature `(K= K_(f) //K_(b))` and in endothermicreaction, `k_(f)` increases with increase of temperature) WHEREAS for exothermic reaction,K decreases with increase of temperature ( because in these reactions, `k_(b)` increases with increase oftemperature) . |
