Consider the following equilibrium in a closed container: 
. At fixed
temperature, the volume of the reaction container is halved for this change, which of the following statement hold true regarding the equilibrium constant 
and degree of dissociation ( 
)?
A
Neither 
nor 
changes
nor changes B
Both 
and 
changes
and changes C
changes but 
does not change D
does not change but 
changes
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
On reducing the volume to half, concentration will double. So, the degree of dissociation will vary but 
and 
only change with temperature.
