For which reaction, the volume is an irrelevant factor in determining Ke
Correct answer: A. Formation of ester
- A. Formation of ester
- B. Dissociation of PCl5
- C. Decomposition of N2O4
- D. Synthesis of NH3
Explanation
This is typically a liquid-phase reaction involving liquids (like acid + alcohol → ester + water).Volume changes do not significantly affect equilibrium in liquid phase because concentrations are based on molarity, and liquids are nearly incompressible.So, volume is irrelevant for equilibrium

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.
