Answer:

decrease the volume of the cylinder.

Explanation:

In order to be able to solve this question we have to understand what Boyle's law is. According to Boyle's law; at constant temperature the pressure of a given mass of gas is inversely proportional to to its volume.

The Boyle's law shows us the relationship between the pressure and the volume. So, the Important thing to note hear is that if the volume in a container is decreased then the pressure will increase (and vice versa) due to the fact that as the volume decreases the particles in that container makes more collision which will make the pressure to increase.

Since, the piston is moveable it means that we can decrease and increase the volume in the cylinder. So, if the decrease the volume of the cylinder then we will have an increase in the pressure of the gas below the piston.

Adding O2 to the reaction 6CO2 + 6H2O <---> C6H12O6 + 6O2, WHICH WAY WILL THE REACTION SHIFT?
Alex73 [517]

Increase in Oxygen shift the equilibrium towards reactant side.

<u>Explanation:</u>

6CO₂ + 6H₂O ⇄ C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

This is the reaction occurs in the photosynthesis of plants by means of sunlight. In this case, if the concentration of Oxygen increases or adding more oxygen to the product side will shift the equilibrium towards the reactant side according to the Le Chatlier's principle, which adjusts the equilibrium by itself for any changes that is increase or decrease in pressure, temperature or concentration of reactants or products.

ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

Ratio is 1:1

Explanation:

I do not see any coefficients infront of the reactants and the products, therefore, we can automatically assume that every reactant and product is 1 mole. Don't get confused by the 4 off the O. It just means that 1 mole of sulfate has 1 zinc and 4 oxygens.
