When the concentrations of CO2 and H2CO3 are both horizontal lines then the rate of the forward reaction is the same as the rate of the reverse reaction.
<h3>What is rate of reaction?</h3>
The term rate of reaction refers to how fast or slow a reaction proceeds. Recall that the rate of reaction is measured from the rate of disappearance of reactants or the rate of appearance of products.
When the [CO2] and [H2CO3 ] are both horizontal lines, the rate of the forward reaction is the same as the rate of the reverse reaction.
Let us recall that the reaction is reversible hence addition of H2CO3 will increase the concentration of H2CO3, the reverse reaction would be favored.

Explanation:
F = k.m1.m2/r²
m1 and m2: masses of objects
r: distance between the objects
k: a constant
Answer 1) When a strong acid like

reacts with

usually the equilibrium shifts to the right because
As per the Le chatelier's principle "if in any reaction, a dynamic equilibrium is disturbed by changing the any of the conditions, the position of equilibrium moves to counteract the change." So, in the given reaction when

reacts with

it generates carbon dioxide and water as a by product, if we are adding

it will remove some of the

molecule from the reaction mixture, which then tends to shift the equilibrium towards right.
Answer 2) The same would be observed in this case, if we replace

with HCl it will shift the equilibrium to the right as their will be generation of AgCl as the precipitate.
As per the definition of Le Chatelier's principle if we add reactants in the reaction the equilibrium will tend to move towards right, also if we replace the products or remove it then too it will shift the equilibrium towards right. So, in this reaction you are removing

and

ions from the solution.
Linking monomers together to form a polymer .This chemical reaction also forms water molecules.
<h3>What is Polymerization?</h3>
This is a type of reaction which involves the linking of two or more monomers to form a polymer.
Dehydration reaction forms water molecules as part of the product thereby making it the most appropriate choice.
