Dynamic equilibrium (Paper 1)

Question 1

What 3 things can change the position of equilibrium?

Answer 1

-Temperature
-Pressure
-Concentration

Question 2

What will happen to the equilibrium if temperature is decreased?

Answer 2

The equilibirum will move in the exothermic direction to produce more heat.

Question 3

What will happen to the equilibrium if temperature is increased?

Answer 3

The equilibirum will move in the endothermic direction to absorb extra heat

Question 4

What will happen to the equilibrium if the pressure is increased?

Answer 4

The equilibrium will move towards the side that has fewer moles of gas to reduce pressure.

Question 5

What will happen to the equilibrium if the pressure is decreased?

Answer 5

The equilibirum will move towards the side that has more moles of gas to increase pressure.

Question 6

What will happen to the equilibrium if the concentration of the reactants is increased?

Answer 6

The equilibirum will move to the right to use up the reactants (making more products).

Question 7

What will happen to the equilibrium if the concentration of the products is increased?

Answer 7

The equilibirum will move to the left to use up the products (making more reactants).

Question 8

What will happen to the equilibrium if the concentartion of the reactants is decreased?

Answer 8

The equilibirum will move to the left to use up the products (making more reactants).

Question 9

What will happen to the equilibrium if the concentration of the products is decreased?

Answer 9

The equilibirum will move to the right to use up the reactants (making more products).
