Q13 / 160 · WBJEE 2012 · Chemistry

In a reversible chemical reaction at equilibrium, if the concentration of any one of the reactants is doubled, then the equilibrium constant will

A
also be doubled
B
be halved
Correct answer
C
remains the same
D
becomes one-fourth

Solution

Equilibrium constant is independent of the concentration of reactants.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
