Which of the following is not a result when a change to an equilibrium system is applied? Increasing the rate of the forward rea

ction will cause a shift to the left. Increasing the rate of the reverse reaction will cause a shift to the left. Decreasing the rate of the forward reaction will cause a shift to the left. Decreasing the rate of the reverse reaction will cause a shift to the right.

Answer: Increasing the rate of the reverse reaction will cause a shift to the left.

Explanation:

Any change in the equilibrium is studied on the basis of Le-Chatelier's principle.

This principle states that if there is any change in the variables of the reaction, the equilibrium will shift in the direction to minimize the effect.

For the given equation:

A+B\leftrightharpoons C+D

For the given options:

Option A: Increasing the rate of the forward reaction will cause a shift to the left.

If the rate of forward reaction is increased, so according to the Le-Chatelier's principle , the equilibrium will shift in the direction where decrease in forward reaction occurs. Hence, the equilibrium will shift in the left direction.

Option B: Increasing the rate of the reverse reaction will cause a shift to the left.

If the rate of reverse reaction is increased, so according to the Le-Chatelier's principle , the equilibrium will shift in the direction where decrease in reverse reaction occurs. Hence, the equilibrium will shift in the right direction.

Option C: Decreasing the rate of the forward reaction will cause a shift to the left

If the rate of forward reaction is decreased, so according to the Le-Chatelier's principle , the equilibrium will shift in the direction where increase in forward reaction occurs. Hence, the equilibrium will shift in the right direction.

Option D: Decreasing the rate of the reverse reaction will cause a shift to the right.

If the rate of reverse reaction is decreased, so according to the Le-Chatelier's principle , the equilibrium will shift in the direction where increase in reverse reaction occurs. Hence, the equilibrium will shift in the left direction.

From the above explanation, we can easily say that the correct answer is Option B.

2) Increasing the rate of the reverse reaction will cause a shift to the left.

Hopefully, If it is wrong my full apologies.



OR IF THATS WRONG, TRY THIS

a - Increasing the rate of the forward reaction will cause equilibrium to be more product-favored (i.e. shift to the right, not the left)

How does an indicator differentiate between an acid and base?
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

that is all I know sorry hope that may help you :)

Explanation:

Indicator is a substance which shows different colors in acidic and basic medium. Indicators can be natural (derived from natural sources) or artificial ( man-made) for example :

*Litmus is an indicator. Acid turns blue litmus into red while base turns red litmus into blue

* Turmeric solution does not show change in color (remains yellow) in acidic solution and turns red in basic solution.

If 21.00 mL of a 0.68 M solution of C6H5NH2 required 6.60 mL of the strong acid to completely neutralize the solution, what was
Andru [333]

Answer:

pH = 2.46

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since this neutralization reaction may be assumed to occur in a 1:1 mole ratio between the base and the strong acid, it is possible to write the following moles and volume-concentrations relationship for the equivalence point:

n_{acid}=n_{base}=n_{salt}

Whereas the moles of the salt are computed as shown below:

n_{salt}=0.021L*0.68mol/L=0.01428mol

So we can divide those moles by the total volume (0.021L+0.0066L=0.0276L) to obtain the concentration of the final salt:

[salt]=0.01428mol/0.0276L=0.517M

Now, we need to keep in mind that this is an acidic salt since the base is weak and the acid strong, so the determinant ionization is:

C_6H_5NH_3^++H_2O\rightleftharpoons  C_6H_5NH_2+H_3O^+

Whose equilibrium expression is:

Ka=\frac{[C_6H_5NH_2][H_3O^+]}{C_6H_5NH_3^+}

Now, since the Kb of C6H5NH2 is 4.3 x 10^-10, its Ka is 2.326x10^-5 (Kw/Kb), we can also write:

2.326x10^{-5}=\frac{x^2}{0.517M}

Whereas x is:

x=\sqrt{0.517*2.326x10^{-5}}\\\\x=3.47x10^-3

Which also equals the concentration of hydrogen ions; therefore, the pH at the equivalence point is:

pH=-log(3.47x10^{-3})\\\\pH=2.46

Regards!
