While reviewing my FL I noticed there was a question i was completely stumped on. It gave the dissociation constant of a reaction and the rate constant of the forward reaction, and asked to find the rate constant of the reverse reaction.
The solution says that this can be easily solved using Keq = k(forward)/k(reverse). I don't recall ever learning this formula, and it wasn't in my TPR book either. Can somebody please explain how to derive this formula? I've searched other sources but couldn't find anything.
