For the given exothermic process at equilibrium, an increase in the concentration of CO would increase the amount of Hâ‚‚.

How is equilibrium affected by changes?

When a perturbation is done on a system at equilibrium, it shifts its equilibrium position to counteract the perturbation.

Let's consider the following exothermic process at equilibrium.

CO(g) + H₂O(g) ⇌ CO₂(g) + H₂(g)

Which of the following changes would increase the amount of Hâ‚‚(g) present in the equilibrium mixture?

  • decrease the temperature. NO. For an exothermic reaction, a decrease in the temperature will shift the equilibrium towards the reactants.
  • increase [COâ‚‚]. NO. This would shift the equilibrium towards the reactants.
  • increase [CO]. YES. This would shift the equilibrium towards the products.
  • increase the volume of the container in which the reaction occurs. NO. This wouldn't affect the equilibrium since the number of gaseous moles is the same on both sides.
  • more than one of the above. NO.

For the given exothermic process at equilibrium, an increase in the concentration of CO would increase the amount of Hâ‚‚.
