Consider three molecules, named X, Y, and Z. When added to a beaker of water they undergo spontaneous reactions. When X is added

to a fresh beaker of water a reaction converts X to Y and then another reaction converts Y to Z until all three are in equilibrium. Similarly, if Z is added to a fresh beaker a reaction converts Z to Y and then another reaction converts Y to X until all three are in equilibrium. You have a beaker of water with X, Y, and Z all in equilibrium. Choose the answer that best explains what will happen if you add more Y to the beaker. Reaction = X Y Z
A .X will decrease / Z will increase
B. X will stay the same and Z stay the same
C. X will increase / Z will stay the same
D. X will stay the same / Z will increase
E. X will increase / Z will increase

Both X and Z will increase in order.

Option D.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Here in the question we can see that all the three compounds X Y and Z are in equilibrium as they are put in a water beaker containing water. This phenomenon is Called chemical equilibrium when the substances that are isomers to each other actually forms in water and their relative concentration remains in a particular ratio according to their stability.

Here in the question, the solution contains X Y and Z in equilibrium. But if more Y is added in the solution, firstly the equilibrium constant for X and Y will get disrupted because X will get low in amount with respect to Y. So some Y will get converted to X. Similarly, when Z will also face the same problem and some Y will get converted to Z. Hence the amounts of both X and Y will increase along with Y.

Answer:

Archaea

Explanation:

Most extremophiles are microorganisms (and a high proportion of these are archaea), but this group also includes eukaryotes such as protists (e.g., algae, fungi and protozoa) and multicellular organisms. Archaea is the main group to thrive in extreme environments.
