What is the value of the equilibrium constant for the reaction B A at this temperature FExplanation / Answer
For A <----------> B
Equilibrium constant, Kc = Kf / Kr = 2.60 X 10-2 / (5.80 X 10-2) = 0.448
Now when you reverse the equilibrium reaction Kc gets inversed ,
so for reaction B <---------> A
Equilibrium constnat,Kc = 1 / 0.448 = 2.232
