Correct Answer: Option B

Explanation

The equilibrium constant for a forward reaction is equal to the reciprocal of the equilibrium constant for the reversed reaction. therefore, the Kc for the forward reaction is related to the Kc for the reversed reaction. when the product of both (Kc)s is equal to one.
