Answer to Question #161327 in General Chemistry for Love

Question

In which direction does the reaction shift as a result of the change in each homogeneous equilibrium system in (a) to (d)?

a. Adding Cl2(g): 2Cl2(g) + O2(g) ⇋ 2Cl2O(g) b. Removing N2(g): 2NO2(g) ⇋ N2(g) + 2O2(g)

c. Using a catalyst:

CH4(g) + 2H2O(g) ⇋ CO2(g) + 4H2(g)

d. Increasing the temperature:

CO(g) + 3H2(g) ⇋ CH4(g) + H2O(g)ΔH = -230 kJ
