The K values increase with temperature. They also change with compsition but the composition is more directly
associated with the rate of the reaction not the K value.

Adding the ChemCAD wilson parameters did very little to change the accuracy. (Changing by the thousandth)
Because it is so minimal, depending on just how much accuracy may matter to the process, I would advise against
excessive calcuation unless warranted by the situation.
