Answer:
If the concentration of product D is increased, the rate of the reverse reaction would increase.
Explanation:
Chemical reaction:
A + B ⇄ C + D
In given condition the equilibrium is disturb by increasing the concentration of product.
When the concentration of product D is increased the system will proceed in backward direction in order to regain the equilibrium. Because when the product concentration is high it means reaction is not on equilibrium state the reaction will proceed backward direction to regain the equilibrium state.
According to the Le- Chatelier principle,
At equilibrium state when stress is applied to the system, the system will behave in such a way to nullify the stress.
The equilibrium can be disturb,
By changing the concentration
By changing the volume
By changing the pressure
By changing the temperature
Answer:
C. Water passes into the salt solution, dehydrating bacterial cells and making them harmless.
Explanation:
The salt solution is hypertonic to the bacterial cells and as such, water molecules will move from the bacterial cells into the salt solution, dehydrating the cells and rendering them harmless.
Option A is also true but it is irrelevant to the question asked. Option B and D are wrong.
The correct option is C.
Answer:
b) The boiling point of the solution is always greater than the boiling point of the pure solvent.
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, when we add a nonvolatile solute to a volatile solvent which has a relatively low boiling point, we can evidence the increase of the boiling point of the resulting solution as more energy must be supplied to take the molecules from liquid to gas. This fact matches with the boiling point elevation colligative property due to the solute's addition, which states that the boiling point of the solution is always greater than the boiling point of the pure solvent, therefore, answer is b).
Best regards.
