Consider the general reaction$$2 \mathrm{A}(g)+\mathrm{B}(s) \rightleftharpoons \mathrm{C}(g)+3 \mathrm{D}(g) \quad \Delta H=+115 \mathrm{kJ} / \mathrm{mol}$$which has already come to equilibrium. Predict whether the equilibrium will shift to the left, willshift to the right, or will not be affected if the changes indicated below are made to the system.a. Additional B(s) is added to the system.b. C(g) is removed from the system as it forms.c. The volume of the system is decreased by a factor of 2.d. The temperature is increased.
a. Le Chatelier's principle states that when a stress is applied to a system at equilibrium, the system will shift to the direction that will minimize the effect of the stress.Le Chatelier's principle states that when a stress is applied to a system at equilibrium, the system will shift to the direction that will minimize the effect of the stress.b. Le Chatelier's principle states that when a stress is applied to a system at equilibrium, the system will shift to the direction that will minimize the effect of the stress.When $C(g)$ is removed, the system will try to replenish the lost $C(s)$ by forming more products. Hence, it will shift to the right.c. Le Chatelier's principle states that when a stress is applied to a system at equilibrium, the system will shift to the direction that will minimize the effect of the stress.From the balanced equation, you can see that there are two moles of gaseous reactants and 4 moles of gaseous products. Hence, there are more gaseous species in the product side. When the volume is decreased, the pressure will increase. The system will try to minimize the pressure by forming less gaseous species. Therefore, it should shift to the left.d. Le Chatelier's principle states that when a stress is applied to a system at equilibrium, the system will shift to the direction that will minimize the effect of the stress.If $\Delta H$ is positive, the reaction is endothermic (absorbs heat). If it is negative, then it is exothermic (releases heat). In the given problem, $\Delta H$ is positive, meaning, it is endothermic (absorbs heat to form products). When the temperature is increased, the system will try to minimize the pressure by absorbing the added heat to form products. It will then shift to the right.

The following reaction is …
So for this question, were given the following equilibrium reaction. And we're told that it's already at equilibrium and were asked what will happens into this reaction if we do the following perturbations. So for a what happens if we add B right and being is a solid now because solids and liquids do not show up in the equilibrium, constant expression, there will be no effects, so the reaction will stay at equilibrium. Now, the part b were as what will happen to me equilibrium if we remove see gas as its forms. Now, if we remove, see yes, right which is a product according to lash Achilles principle and the system gonna wanna undo the change. And so because we're moving, see, the system is going to shift to produce See again you know, the reestablish equilibrium. So in this case, the reaction is gonna shift to the right and for part C were asked what will happen if the volume of the system is the decrease. So if the container sizes decrease by a factor of two, all right, so if we decrease the volume and in this case the factor of two doesn't matter, because this is just a qualitative question. And so if we decreased the buying when you think about what happens to the pressure of the system I and if we decrease the volume, the total pressure increases. These are the pressure of all the gases and the container will increase. And because of that, the Excalibur is gonna want to shift to reduce the pressure. And in order to do that, it will shift to the side with les miles of gas. Since we know that, yes, we know that the moles of gas and the pressure are directly proportional. So in this case, if we look at the left side, we have two moles of gas. This by looking at the Stoke Geometrical efficient uh, the gas one and then on the right side, we have four moles of gas since we have one well coming from C and three moles coming from the deep. So in order to reduce the pressure is going to shift towards the left where we have a less molded gas when we have two moles of gas chefs left and then the final perturbation in part D is what happens if the temperature is increased So if you increase the temperature now to consider that we need to look at the facts that this reaction is Endo thermic nice and still th is confident. And so that means that heat is absorbed so heat is used up as a reaction proceeds. So we want to think about heat as a reactant because it's consumed as a reaction and happens now. If we increase the temperature, we want to think about it. As Addie heats, these were increasing the amount of heats. So now, according to the shuttle, it's principal write just for, like any of the species analysts, solid or liquid. If we increased the amount of heat, the reaction isn't a shift to consume it. Maize is gonna shift over A from it. And so here the reaction is going to shift to the rights
