The equilibrium constant of an endothermic reaction is at and at . Assuming is constant, the value of at is closest to

  1. A
  2. B
  3. C
  4. D

Answer: C

is linear in . The fraction of the way from to on the scale is . Therefore and . Interpolating linearly in gives 5.0 and taking the geometric mean gives 4.0, both wrong.
