On increasing temperature, the equilibrium constant of exothermic and endothermic reactions, respectively
On increasing temperature, the equilibrium constant of exothermic and endothermic reactions, respectively
increases and decreases
decreases and increases
increases and increases
decreases and decreases
Solution
For exothermic reaction, $k_f$ decreases and $k_b$ increases with increase of temperature so that $K_{e q}$ decreases. For endothermic reaction, $k_f$ increases and $k_b$ decreases with increase of temperature so that $K_{e q}$ increases.
