For the general equation of the nature

xP + yQ ⇌ mR + nS, the expression for the equilibrium constant is

  • A k[P]\(^x\)[Q]\(^y\)
  • B \(\frac{m[R][S]}{x[P]y[Q]}\)
  • C \(\frac{[P]^x[Q]^y}{[R]^m[S]^n}\)
  • D \(\frac{[R]^m[S]^n}{[P]^x[Q]^y}\)

The correct answer is D. \(\frac{[R]^m[S]^n}{[P]^x[Q]^y}\)

Given:

xP + yQ ⇌ mR + nS

Let us assume they are all in aqueous solution

k = \(\frac{[R]^m[S]^n}{[P]^x[Q]^y}\)
