Fe3++scn-=fescn2+ when fecl3 is added what happen equilibrium expression
Answers
Answer :
What happens to equilibrium when the concentration of the reactant or product is changed ?
=> When the concentration of the reactant or product is changed ,the system readjust itself by shifting the equilibrium which counteracts the change in concentration that was made.
According to the question:
(yellow) (colourless) (deep colour)
In this reaction product ions are coloured and posses deep colour whereas one of the reactant is colourless.
NOW IN ACCORDANCE TO LE-CHATELIER'S PRINCIPAL :
If small amount of FeCl is added, the colour of the solution becomes lighter. And this cause equilibrium to shift towards left, i.e deep red coloured FeSCN ions dissociate to give yellow coloured ions.
And thus the colour becomes lighter.
hope it helps :))
