Question

Assume that the following exothermic chemical reaction is at equilibrium. Which of the following statements is/are CORRECT? Increasing the concentration of H_2(g) will cause the reaction to proceed in the backward direction, increasing the equilibrium concentration of H_2O(g). Decreasing the temperature will cause the reaction to proceed in the forward direction, increasing the equilibrium concentration of CO(g). Increasing the amount of C(s) will cause the reaction to proceed in the forward direction, increasing the equilibrium concentration of CO(g).

Explanation / Answer

Option (1) and (3) are correct

but not shown in option

If H2 conc increases bacjkward reaction takes place more H2O formed

If increase an amount of C(s) , forward reaction takes place, more CO formed

But decreasing temperature, backward reaction takes place, because this reaction is endothermic reaction

(2) option is wrong
