What would cause the equilibrium to shift left in this reaction?
Lilit [14]

As per Le Chatelier's principle, if the equilibrium of a system is disturbed by changes in temperature, pressure, concentration etc then it will shift in a direction to undo the effect of the induced change.

The given reaction is:

CO + 3H2 ↔ CH4 + H2O

In this case, if the rate of the forward reaction is increased then more of the reactants get converted into products i.e. concentration of reactants decreases. In order to undo this change, the equilibrium will shift in a direction to produce more reactants i.e. to the left.

Ans: B)  faster rate of forward reaction

Paha777 [63]
Washing your hands beforehand is important in order to minimize contamination of your experiments. This gets rid of things such as bacteria that can interfere with lab results. You should also wash your hands after completing lab because the chemicals you work with can leave toxic or harmful remains on you. It's important to wash those chemical traces off before you go outside the lab area.
