Correct Answer: Option C:<span> The equilibrium position will shift to the right toward the products.
Reason:
1) This problem is based on </span>Le Chatelier's principle. It is stated as '<em>any</em><span><em> changes in the temperature, volume, or concentration of a system will result in predictable and opposing changes in the system in order minimize this change and achieve a new equilibrium state.</em>'
2) In present case, the reaction involved is:
</span><span> CH3CO2H(aq) + H2O(l) ⇄ CH3CO2-(aq) + H3O+(l)
</span>Hence, when the concentration of acetic acid (reactant) is increased, the equilibrium will shift to right to minimize the effect of change in concentration of reactant.
Answer:
D) He did not multiply the chlorine and oxygen atoms by the coefficient 4.
Explanation:
The coefficient 4 at the beginning of the chemical formula indicates that there are four Ca(ClO3)2 molecules. Think of this as Ca(ClO3)2 × 4. This means that he had to multiply the number of atoms for each element by 4 as well, so he should've ended up with 4 total calcium atoms (which is correct), 8 total chlorine atoms, and and 24 total oxygen atoms. He did not get all these answers because he didn't multiply the chlorine and oxygen atoms by the coefficient 4.
