Question

question 5 of 10 which of the following choices is the equilibrium constant of a reaction? a. $k_{eq} = reactants+products$ b. $k_{eq} = productsreactants$ c. $k_{eq}=\frac{products}{reactants}$ d. $k_{eq}=\frac{reactants}{products}$

Explanation:

The equilibrium constant ($K_{eq}$) of a chemical reaction is defined as the ratio of the molar - concentrations of the products to the molar - concentrations of the reactants, each raised to the power of their stoichiometric coefficients. In a simple form (for a reaction where stoichiometric coefficients are 1), it is the ratio of product concentrations to reactant concentrations.

Answer:

C. $K_{eq}=\frac{[products]}{[reactants]}$
