Answer:

The correct answer is :'The equilibrium will shift to the right to favor the forward reaction'.

Explanation:

$CH_4(g) + H_2O(g) \rightleftharpoons CO(g) + 3H2(g)$

According to Le-Chatlier's principle,When the pressure is increased the equilibrium shifts in the direction where number of moles of gas molecules are greater .

The equilibrium will shift towards the product side because there are more number of moles of gas re greater on product side. So, the equilibrium will shift in the right direction favoring the forward reaction.

When pressure in a chemical reaction increases, the equilibrium will shift towards the side of the reaction with fewer moles of gas. When there is a decrease in pressure, the equilibrium will shift towards the side of the reaction with more moles of gas.Therefore; in this case; increased the Equilibrium will shift to the left and favor the reverse reaction. This is because the side of products has more moles compared to the side of reactants, thus increased in pressure will aid conversion of products to reactants.

What relationship exists between the mass number of an element and the isotopes of that element?

labwork [276]

The mass number plays an important role for elements and their isotopes. Mass number comes from the addition of protons and neutrons (their weight). Isotopes are the elements, but with a different number of neutrons. So in turn, by subtracting the number of protons (atomic number) from the mass, you can find the number of neutrons.

O2- is the Lewis ______ in the following reaction

matrenka [14]

$O^{2-}$ is the Lewis base in the following reaction:

$SO_3(g) + O^{2-}(aq)$ → $SO_4^{2-}(aq)$

<h3>What is lewis base? </h3>

Lewis base is a species that donates an electron pair.

In the above-given chemical equation, the $O^{2-}$ is the lewis base which is donating an electron pair to the central atom of $SO_3$ to form $SO_4^{-2}$ .
