Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In the reaction A(g) + B(g) ⇌ C(g), if A is removed from the system, what will happen?
  • Step 1: Understand that A, B, and C are gases involved in a reversible reaction.
  • Step 2: Recognize that the reaction can go in both directions: from A and B to C, and from C back to A and B.
  • Step 3: Know that equilibrium means the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal.
  • Step 4: When A is removed from the system, there is less A available for the reaction.
  • Step 5: According to Le Chatelier's Principle, the system will try to counteract this change by shifting the equilibrium.
  • Step 6: The equilibrium will shift to the left (towards A and B) to produce more A.
  • Step 7: As a result, the concentration of C will decrease while the concentration of A and B will increase.
