The following reaction is endothermic: CaCO₃ (s) $\rightarrow$ CaO (s) + CO₂ (g). Which of the following will cause the reaction to shift towards making more carbon dioxide gas?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

For an endothermic reaction, increasing the temperature shifts the equilibrium to the right, producing more products, including carbon dioxide gas in this case.

The Following Reaction Is Endothermic: CaCO3 (S) →\rightarrow→ CaO (S) + CO2 (G)

The Following Reaction Is Endothermic: CaCO₃ (S) $\rightarrow$ CaO (S) + CO₂ (G)
