Open QuestionWhat effect do the listed changes have on the position of the equilibrium in the reaction of carbon with hydrogen?C(s) + 2 H2(g) ⇌ CH4(g) ∆H = -18 kcal/mol (-75kJ/mol)Allowing CH4 to escape continuously from the reaction vessel
Open QuestionWhy do catalysts not alter the amounts of reactants and products present at equilibrium?
Open QuestionWhen the following equilibria are disturbed by increasing the pressure, does the concentration of reaction products increase, decrease, or remain the same?2 CO2(g) ⇌ 2 CO(g) + O2(g)
Open QuestionFor the following equilibria, use Le Châtelier's principle to predict the direction of the reaction when the pressure is increased by decreasing the volume of the equilibrium mixture.C(s) + H2O(g) ⇌ CO(g) + H2(g)
Open QuestionThe reaction H2(g) + I2(g) ⇌ 2 HI(g) has ∆H = -2.2 kcal/mol (-9.2 kJ/mol). Will the equilibrium concentration of HI increase or decrease whenA catalyst is added?
Open QuestionThe reaction H2(g) + I2(g) ⇌ 2 HI(g) has ∆H = -2.2 kcal/mol (-9.2 kJ/mol). Will the equilibrium concentration of HI increase or decrease whenH2 is removed?
Open QuestionThe reaction Fe 3+(aq) + Cl -(aq) ⇌ FeCl 2+(aq) is endothermic. How will the equilibrium concentration of FeCl 2+ change whenCl - is precipitated by addition of AgNO3?
Open QuestionMany carbonate minerals are insoluble in water and appear in water pipes as 'scale.'Why is scale formation typically only a problem in hot water pipes?
