THe values of all of the following are reversed when a reaction is reversed except...

A) Enthalpy
B) Gibbs energy
C) the rate constant
D) reaction potential

Can someone please explain this to me?

Is the answer the rate constant?

 

[imbackasd]

Yup!

Only temperature and catalyst can affect rate constant.
If you reverse an exothermic reaction with negative enthalpy the reverse reaction is an endothermic reaction with positive enthalpy.
Free Gibbs energy is dependent on enthalpy .
