Hi!

Answer:

The change in temperature.

Explanation:

Snow forms at 0 °C, when water vapor converts directly into solid ice crystals. Sleet forms when raindrops fall through a layer of air colder than 0 °C. This means that from the time it was snowing to the time it started sleeting the air has gotten warmer but one layer of air stayed cold, hence the formation of sleet. Freezing rain is rain that freezes when it hits a cold surface. This means that from the time it was sleeting to the time there was freezing rain the air had completely warmed and is now above 0 °C but the ground and all other surfaces are still cold.

I hope this helps, as this happens all the time where I live! :)

Consider the reversible reaction, A+B⇌C+D. If the concentration of product D is increased, the rate of the reverse reaction woul
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

If the concentration of product D is increased, the rate of the reverse reaction would increase.

Explanation:

Chemical reaction:

A + B ⇄ C + D

In given condition the equilibrium is disturb by increasing the concentration of product.

When the concentration of product D is increased the system will proceed in backward direction in order to regain the equilibrium. Because when the product concentration is high it means reaction is not on equilibrium state the reaction will proceed backward direction to regain the equilibrium state.

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
