The given chemical reaction is:

Question

[COCl_2(g) \rightleftharpoons CO(g) + Cl_2(g) \quad K = 1.5 \times 10^{10}]

Would you predict this reaction to be fast or slow? Select the single best answer.

You can't predict the rate from the value of K.

The reaction would be fast since K>1.

The reaction would be slow since K>1.

Please choose the correct answer B is incorrect

Answer 1

The correct answer is:

You can't predict the rate from the value of K.
