Question 46

Chemical Equilibrium

In the chemical reaction A + B ⇌ C + D, more of D is formed

  1. A.if the concentration of A is reduced
  2. B.if the concentration of B is reduced
  3. C.if the concentration of C is increased
  4. D.if the concentration of D is increased
  5. E.if D is continuously removed from the reaction mixture.
Show the answer and explanation

Answer: E (if D is continuously removed from the reaction mixture.)

Explanation

Removing a product makes the equilibrium shift to the right to replace it, so more D keeps forming.
