Question
Chapter 16, Problem 13ST
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The direction of equilibrium shift after reducing the volume of the reaction is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The equilibrium constant is a parameter which describes the relationship between concentration of the reactants and the products at equilibrium stage. Equilibrium constant of a reaction is expressed by the ratio of concentration of product species raised to the power of their
