Question

describe the effect of a.removal of H2 b.addition of CO c.addition of CH3OH​

Answer 1

Answer:

according to Le - Chatelier's principle,

it states that a change in any of the factors that determine the equilibrium conditions of a system will cause the system to change in such a manner so as to reduce or to counteract the effect of the change .

after applying the rules , we get

(a) addition of H2 ( increasing concentration of reactants ) means equilibrium shifts forward direction ( hence, more products is formed )

(b) addition of CH3OH : increases in concentration of products ) means equilibrium shifts the backward direction.

(c) Removal of CO : if we remove the CO then equilibrium shifts the backward direction.

(d) Removal of CH3OH : equilibrium shifts in forward direction.
