The numerical value of equilirium constant depends on
Options:
Temperature
Pressure
Concentration of reactant
All of these

Dear student,
 

The equilibrium constant depends on the following factors:

  1. Concentration of reactants and products
    • If concentration of reactant is increased or concentration of product is decreaed at equilibrium,  equilibrium constant shifts towards right, forward reaction is favoured, product formation increases
  2. Temperature 
    • At low temperature, exothermic reaction is favoured, equilibrium constant shifts towards that side.
    • At high temperature, endothermic reaction is favoured, equilibrium constant shifts towards that side.
  3. Pressure
    • At high pressure, equilibrium constant shifts that side where number of moles is lesser
    • At low pressure, equilibrium constant shifts that side where number of moles is higher
  4. Presence of catalyst
    • It does not affect equilibrium constant but helps to get the equilibrium in short time of interval.
Correct option is all of these 

Regards
