A Qualitative Interpretation of the Effect of Temperature on Equilibrium $\Delta$

Multiple Choice

A qualitative interpretation of the effect of temperature on equilibrium views heat as a reactant or product and explains shifts in equilibrium with temperature as responses to stress to the equilibrium. How does van 't Hoff's equation refine this view?

A) It incorporates the heat into a RICE table calculation.
B) It accounts for the shift in terms of the temperature dependence of K.
C) It uses stoichiometry to interpret heat quantitatively as a reactant or product.
D) It uses a statistical-mechanical interpretation of heat.
E) It enables Q to be calculated from $\Delta$ H° and $\Delta$ S°.
