JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 11 - 6.1. Equilibrium - 1 (chemical Equilibrium)
Given below are two statements
Statement I : A catalyst cannot alter the equilibrium constant \(\left(\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{c}}\right)\) of the reaction, temperature remaining constant
Statement II : A homogenous catalyst can change the equilibrium composition of a system temperature remaining constant
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below
- A Statement I is false but Statement II is true
- B Both Statement I and Statement II are true
- C Both Statement I and Statement II is false
- D Statement I is true but Statement II is false
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) Both Statement I and Statement II are true
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
A catalyst can change equilibrium composition if it is added at constant pressure, but it can not change equilibrium constant.
