The value of equilibrium constant for reverse reaction is

Explanation:

The given chemical equation follows:

The equilibrium constant for the above equation is

We need to calculate the equilibrium constant for the reverse equation of above chemical equation, which is:

The equilibrium constant for the reverse reaction will be the reciprocal of the initial reaction.

If the equation is multiplied by a factor of '', the equilibrium constant of the reverse reaction will be the 1/2 power of the equilibrium constant  of initial reaction.

The value of equilibrium constant for reverse reaction is:

Hence, the value of equilibrium constant for reverse reaction is
