Description:
<span>"0.0400 mol of H2O2 decomposed into 0.0400 mol of H2O and 0.0200 mol of O2."
This means that a certain amount of H2O2 (0.0400 mol) decomposed or was broken down into two components, 0.04 mol of H2O and 0.02 mol of O2. To examine the system, we need a balanced equation:
H2O2 ---> H2O + 0.5O2
The final concentrations of the system indicates that the system is in equilibrium. </span>
Answer:
Option B. The reaction will shift to the left in the direction of the reactants.
Explanation:
The equation for the reaction is given below:
CO₂ + 2H₂O <=> CH₄ + O₂
Enthalpy change (ΔH) = +890 KJ
The reaction illustrated by the equation is endothermic reaction since the enthalpy change (ΔH) is positive.
Increasing the temperature of an endothermic reaction will shift the equilibrium position to the right and decrease the temperature will shift the equilibrium position to the left.
Therefore, decreasing the temperature of the system illustrated by the equation above, will shift the reaction to the left in the direction of the reactants.
Thus, option B gives the right answer to the question.
2 A
3 C
4 B
