____________ explains the equilibrium constant for any chemical reaction?

Correct answer: B. Law of mass action

  • A. Henry's law
  • B. Law of mass action
  • C. Hess's law
  • D. None of these

Explanation

The law of mass action expresses the equilibrium constant in terms of the activities or concentrations of reactants and products, each raised to its stoichiometric coefficient. Henry's law concerns gas solubility, while Hess's law concerns enthalpy changes.
