C. pollute water and damage aquatic ecosystems
Explanation:
Le Chatelier's principle states that for a long period of time if a system is at equilibrium and it is subjected to change in concentration, temperature, volume or pressure then the system shifts to a new equilibrium.
This change will partly counter acts the applied change.
Therefore, when heat is added to the system then equilibrium will shift to the side where temperature or heat is reduced again.
For example,
Since heat is added to the system, hence, system will shift to the left side or we can say equilibrium will shift to the backward direction.
Thompson proposed a model (the plum pudding model) whereby the negatively charged corpuscles were distributed in a uniform sea of positive charge. In other words the positive charge was like the pudding and the negative charge were like raisins on the pudding.
Answer:
- The last option: <u><em>Decrease the volume to increase pressure and to increase concentration.</em></u>
Explanation:
You can support your choice on basis of the collision theory.
According to the collision theory, the chemical reactions happen when the molecules collide with each other, in the correct orientation and with enough kinetic energy to overcome the activation energy.
As consequence, the larger the number of collisions the larger the rate of a reaction.
In the case of a reaction that involves gases, decreasing the volume, will increase the pressure and the concentration (volume is inversely related to both the pressure and the concentration) causing the molecules to be closer to each other and to collide with higher frequency, this is you will expect more collisions, and so an increase on the rate of the reaction. That is expressed by the last choice: decrease the volumen to increase pressure and to increase concentration.
