2O3 ⇌ 3O2 Ke = 1055 at 25°C, it explains
Correct answer: B. The extraordinary instability of ozone
- A. the reducing power of ozone
- B. The extraordinary instability of ozone
- C. The UV absorption capacity of ozone
- D. Pollutant property of ozone
Explanation
B) The extraordinary instability of ozone: The high equilibrium constant (Ke = 1055) at 25°C explains the extraordinary instability of ozone, indicating that the reaction strongly favors the decomposition of ozone into molecular oxygen.

About Chemical Equilibrium
Reversible reactions reach dynamic equilibrium when forward and reverse rates become equal, and Le Chatelier's principle predicts the effect of changing concentration, pressure or temperature. The chapter also covers solubility product, the common ion effect, buffer action and the conditions used in Haber's process, with equilibrium shifts distinguished from changes in the equilibrium constant.
