Final answer:

The balanced chemical equation corresponding to the given equilibrium constant expression is

4NH3 (g)+5O2 (g) ⇌ 4NO(g)+6H2O(g), making option B the accurate representation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The balanced chemical equation corresponding to the equilibrium constant expression

KC=[NH₃]^⁴ [O^⁶]^⁵/ [NO]^⁴ [H₆O]^⁶ is option B. 4NH₃ (g)+5O₂ (g) ⇌ 4NO(g)+6H₂O(g).

This is because the equilibrium constant expression is derived from the stoichiometric coefficients in the balanced equation, with products in the numerator and reactants in the denominator raised to the power of their coefficients.
