Answer:
According to Le Chatelier's principle, increasing the reaction temperature of an exothermic reaction causes a shift to the left and decreasing the reaction temperature causes a shift to the right.
Explanation:
C6H12O6(s) + 6O2(g) ⇌6CO2(g) + 6H2O(g)
We are told that the forward reaction is exothermic, meaning heat is removed from the reacting substance to the surroundings.
According to Le Chatelier's principle,
1. for an exothermic reaction, on increasing the temperature, there is a shift in equilibrium to the left and formation of the product is favoured.
2. if the temperature of the system is decreased, the equilibrium shifts to right and the formation of the reactants is favoured.
3. if the reaction temperature is kept constant, the system is at equilibrium and there is no shift to the right nor to the left.
Answer: The coefficient in front of nitric acid is 2
Explanation:
According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.
The salts which are soluble in water are designated by symbol (aq) and those which are insoluble in water and remain in solid form are represented by (s) after their chemical formulas. Liquids are represented by (l) and gases are represented by (g).
The balanced chemical reaction is :
The letter in parentheses after a chemical formula indicates c) the physical state of the substance.
The letters can be:
→ (s) for solid.
→ (l) for liquid.
→ (g) for gazeous.
→ (aq) for an aqueous solution (like NaCl (aq) - NaCl is dissolved in water)
The answer is Decomposition.
