Question

Consider the following equilibrium for which H = -209.7:

2 C2H6(g) + O2(g)  2 C2H4(g) + 2 H2O(g)

How will each of the following changes affect an equilibrium mixture of the 4 gases in this reaction?

(a) C2H4(g) is added to the system.
-the equilibrium will not shift

-the equlibrium will shift toward product but Keq will not change

-the equlibrium will shift toward reactant but Keq will not change

-the equlibrium will shift toward product but Keq will increase

-the equlibrium will shift toward reactant but Keq will decrease        


(b) The reaction mixture is heated.

-the equilibrium will not shift

-the equlibrium will shift toward product but Keq will not change

-the equlibrium will shift toward reactant but Keq will not change

-the equlibrium will shift toward product but Keq will increase

-the equlibrium will shift toward reactant but Keq will decrease

     
(c) The volume of the reaction vessel is reduced by 50%.

-the equilibrium will not shift

-the equlibrium will shift toward product but Keq will not change

-the equlibrium will shift toward reactant but Keq will not change

-the equlibrium will shift toward product but Keq will increase

-the equlibrium will shift toward reactant but Keq will decrease

        
(d) A catalyst is added to the reaction mixture.

-the equilibrium will not shift

-the equlibrium will shift toward product but Keq will not change

-the equlibrium will shift toward reactant but Keq will not change

-the equlibrium will shift toward product but Keq will increase

-the equlibrium will shift toward reactant but Keq will decrease

       
(e) The total pressure of the system is increased by adding a noble gas.

-the equilibrium will not shift

-the equlibrium will shift toward product but Keq will not change

-the equlibrium will shift toward reactant but Keq will not change

-the equlibrium will shift toward product but Keq will increase

-the equlibrium will shift toward reactant but Keq will decrease

        
(f) H2O(g) is removed from the system.
