\frac{[R]^{m} [S]^{n}}{[P]^{x} [Q]^{y}}

Maelezo ya Majibu

The expression for the equilibrium constant for the general equation XP + yQ ⇌ mR + nS is: Kc = [R]m[S]n / [P]x[Q]y where Kc is the equilibrium constant, [R] and [S] are the concentrations of the products, and [P] and [Q] are the concentrations of the reactants, all raised to the stoichiometric coefficients (m, n, x, y) in the balanced equation. This equation is known as the equilibrium constant expression and it represents the ratio of the concentrations of the products and reactants at equilibrium for a particular chemical reaction. The equilibrium constant is a measure of how far a reaction proceeds towards completion, with a larger value indicating a greater extent of reaction. The equilibrium constant expression is derived from the law of mass action, which states that the rate of a chemical reaction is proportional to the product of the concentrations of the reactants raised to their stoichiometric coefficients. At equilibrium, the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal, and the equilibrium constant expression represents the ratio of the rate constants for these two reactions. Therefore, the correct expression for the equilibrium constant for the general equation XP + yQ ⇌ mR + nS is Kc = [R]m[S]n / [P]x[Q]y.
