Q
Q: In the reaction: 2SO2(g) + O2(g) ⇌ 2SO3(g), what happens if the temperature is increased?
Solution:
If the reaction is exothermic, increasing the temperature will shift the equilibrium to the left, favoring the reactants.
Steps: 6
Show Steps
Step 1: Identify the type of reaction. The given reaction is 2SO2(g) + O2(g) ⇌ 2SO3(g).
Step 2: Determine if the reaction is exothermic or endothermic. An exothermic reaction releases heat.
Step 3: If the reaction is exothermic, increasing the temperature adds heat to the system.
Step 4: According to Le Chatelier's principle, the system will try to counteract the added heat.
Step 5: To counteract the heat, the equilibrium will shift to the left, favoring the reactants (SO2 and O2).
Step 6: Therefore, increasing the temperature will result in more SO2 and O2 being produced.
