  1. Question 1

    Q1. Hydrogen gas reacts with iodine vapors to form hydrogen iodide in a reversible process. What are the units for the equilibrium constant Kc for this reaction?

    • A) mol dm-3
    • B) mol-1 dm3
    • C) mol-2 dm6
    • D) No units

    Answer: No units

    Explanation: Kc is unitless when moles of reactants equal moles of products. Option A fails because it assumes units always exist for Kc.
