Answer:

It is temperature dependent only

Step-by-step explanation:

For any system in equilibrium, the molar concentration of all species on the right hand side are related to the molar concentrations of those at the left side by a constant known as the equilibrium constant.

  • The equilibrium constant is a constant at a given temperature.
  • The constant is temperature dependent only.
  • It is not dependent on the values of concentration or pressure of a system.
