In the following reaction, what is the effect on the direction of the reaction if more SO3 is added to the reaction mixture?

Answer:

The equilibrium shifts to produce more reactants.

Explanation:

According to the Le- Chatelier principle,

At equilibrium state when stress is applied to the system, the system will behave in such a way to nullify the stress.

The equilibrium can be disturb,

By changing the concentration

By changing the volume

By changing the pressure

By changing the temperature

Consider the following chemical reaction.

Chemical reaction:

2SO₂ +  O₂  ⇄  2SO₃

In this reaction the equilibrium is disturb by increasing the concentration of Product.

When the concentration of product is increased the system will proceed in backward direction in order to regain the equilibrium. Because when product concentration is high it means reaction is not on equilibrium state. As the concentration of SO₃  increased the reaction proceed in backward direction to regain the equilibrium state and more reactant is formed.

How does the tendency of iron to rust depend on ph?
mojhsa [17]
The  tendency  of  iron  to  rust   depend  on  the  Ph   of solution

 The   formation  of  rust  increases  as  the  PH  decreases.  This  led  agent  of  rusting  that  is  oxygen  gets  more  positive  as  H+  ions  increase   which  facilitate     rusting. The    lower  the  Ph  level  the   quick  the   corrosion.

How does the law of conservation of mass relate to the number of atoms of each element that are present before a reaction vs. th
TiliK225 [7]
The law of conservation of mass or principle of mass conservation states that for any system closed to all transfers of matter and energy, the mass of the system must remain constant over time, as system's mass cannot change, so quantity cannot be added nor removed. Hence, the quantity of mass is conserved over time.

The law implies that mass can neither be created nor destroyed, although it may be rearranged in space, or the entities associated with it may be changed in form. For example, in chemical reactions, the mass of the chemical components before the reaction is equal to the mass of the components after the reaction. Thus, during any chemical reaction and low-energy thermodynamic processes in an isolated system, the total mass of the reactants, or starting materials, must be equal to the mass of the products.

According to the Law of Conservation, all atoms of the reactant(s) must equal the atoms of the product(s).
As a result, we need to balance chemical equations. We do this by adding in coefficients to the reactants and/or products. The compound(s) itself/themselves DOES NOT CHANGE.
