Pure silicon is a poor conductor at room temperature because it has 4 valence electrons
Fewer option for consumers
Answer:
Option B. The reaction will shift to the left in the direction of the reactants.
Explanation:
The equation for the reaction is given below:
CO₂ + 2H₂O <=> CH₄ + O₂
Enthalpy change (ΔH) = +890 KJ
The reaction illustrated by the equation is endothermic reaction since the enthalpy change (ΔH) is positive.
Increasing the temperature of an endothermic reaction will shift the equilibrium position to the right and decrease the temperature will shift the equilibrium position to the left.
Therefore, decreasing the temperature of the system illustrated by the equation above, will shift the reaction to the left in the direction of the reactants.
Thus, option B gives the right answer to the question.
