The irreversible reaction, X → Y, is the special case of the reversible reaction, X ⇌ Y, in which the _____________________?
Correct answer: D. All A., B. and C.
- A. Equilibrium constant is infinite
- B. Fractional conversion of 'A' at equilibrium is unity
- C. Concentration of 'A' at equilibrium is zero
- D. All A., B. and C.
Explanation
An irreversible reaction is the limiting reversible case with an infinite equilibrium constant. Consequently, the equilibrium conversion is unity and the equilibrium concentration of A is zero, so all three statements apply.
