Correct Answer: Option C: The equilibrium position will shift to the right toward the products.

Reason:
1) This problem is based on Le Chatelier's principle. It is stated as 'any 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.'

2) In present case, the reaction involved is:
 CH3CO2H(aq) + H2O(l) ⇄ CH3CO2-(aq) + H3O+(l)
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.

Water is being pumped from the bottom of a well 150 feet deep at a rate of 200 gal/hour into a vented storage tank 30 feet above

KengaRu [80]

Explanation:

As the given data is as follows.

Height, H = 150 feet

Heat gain = 30,000 BTU/hr, and Heat loss = 25000 BTU/hr

m = mass of water heated = 700 gallons = 5810 lbs

$C_{p}$ is the heat capacity of water = 1 BTU/lb $^{o}F$ (given)
