Answer: B.) 0.827
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
Equilibrium constant (k) = 0.75
Forward rate constant = 0.62 mol/L/s
Backward rate constant =?
The equilibrium constant denited as 'k' is the proportion of the forward rate constant and the reverse rate constant.
Mathematically,
K = [forward rate constant / Reverse rate constant]
k = 0.75 ; forward rate constant = 0. 62mol/L/s
0.75 = [ 0.62mol/L/s ÷ reverse rate constant]
Reverse rate constant * 0.75 = 0.62mol/L/s
Reverse rate constant = (0.62mol/L/s ÷ 0.75)
Reverse rate constant = 0.8266mol/L/s
Reverse rate constant = 0.827mol / L/s
