Based on Le Chatelier's principle, if the equilibrium of a system is disturbed by changing the temperature, pressure or concentration, then it will shift in a direction to undo the effect of the induced change.
The given equilibrium is:
A + B ↔ AB
Removal of the reactant A implies that the concentration of A has decreased, therefore the equilibrium will shift in a direction to produce more of A. Thus, it will shift to the left and the rate of the reverse or backward reaction will increase.
Answer:
Explanation:
Temperature measures the average kinetic (or motion) energy of the particles within a substance.

Pb + Mg(NO₃)₂ → Pb(NO₃)₂ + Mg
This reaction would NOT occur because Pb is less reactive than Mg and as such Pb cannot displace the Mg in order for the reaction to occur under normal conditions.
Mg + Fe(NO₃)₂ → Fe + Mg(NO₃)₂
This reaction would occur. This is because Mg is more reactive than Fe and as such can displace it in the reaction, thus allowing the reaction to occur under normal conditions.
Cu + Mg(NO₃)₂ → Cu(NO₃)₂ + Mg
This reaction would NOT occur. Mg is more reactive than Cu, and as such copper cannot displace magnesium in order for the reaction to occur under normal conditions.
