Consider the reaction below. Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) mc019-1.jpg H2(g) + MgCl2(aq) What is the most likely effect of an increase in pre
ssure on this reaction? The reactant surface area increases. The reaction rate decreases. The reaction is not affected at all. The reaction stops completely.
An increase in pressure affects directly the rate of reaction involving reactiong gases. Changing the pressure where there are only solids or liquids does not affect the rate of reaction.
This reaction is not an equilibrium, the reaction is only forward. So, the reacting components, Mg(s) and HCl(aq) are a solid and a liquid.
Therefore, the reaction is not affected by the change in pressure.
Cells have many structures inside them called organelles. These organelles are like organs in a human that help a organism survive. Mitochondria are the power House of the cell and provide energy for the cell.
