Question 1
The following reaction is
exothermic. Which of the following will drive the reaction to the right (towards products)?
CH
4 (g) + 2 O
2 (g) ↔ CO
2 (g) + 2 H
2O (g)
◦ The addition of CO
2◦ A decrease in temperature
◦ An increase in temperature
◦ The removal of CH
4Question 2
Consider the following system at equilibrium:
SO
2Cl
2(g) ⇔ SO
2(g) + Cl
2(g)
Identify which combination of the following changes will shift the equilibrium to the product side.
I.
Addition of SO
2Cl
2
II.
Addition of SO
2
III.
Removal of SO
2Cl
2
IV.
Removal of Cl
2◦ III + IV
◦ II + III
◦ I + II
◦ I + IV
