Q. The compounds $A$ and $B$ are mixed in equimolar proportion to form the products, $A+B \rightleftharpoons C+D$
At equilibrium, one-third of $A$ and $B$ are consumed. The equilibrium constant for the reaction is

Equilibrium

Solution:

$K=\frac{[C][D]}{[A][B]}=\frac{\frac{1}{3} \times \frac{1}{3}}{\frac{2}{3} \times \frac{2}{3}}=0.25$
