What happens to the equilibrium constant (Kc) if the concentration of reactants is increased?

A. It increases
B. It decreases
C. It remains the same
D. It becomes zero

Answer: It remains the same

Additional Information: The equilibrium constant (Kc) is independent of the concentrations of reactants and products.
