The exothermic formation of is represented by the equation:

Which of the following will increase the quantity of in an equilibrium mixture?

  1. A
    Increasing the temperature
  2. B
    Removing
  3. C
    Increasing the volume of the container
  4. D
    Adding

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

According to Le Chatelier's Principle:Temperature: Since the reaction is exothermic, increasing temperature shifts equilibrium to the left.Reactants: Adding a reactant ( or ) shifts the equilibrium to the right, increasing product formation. Adding works.Removing : Shifts equilibrium to the left.Volume/Pressure: Increasing volume decreases pressure. The equilibrium shifts toward the side with more moles of gas (left, moles vs moles).
