Consider the following reaction at equilibrium.What effect will removing NO₂ have on the system? SO₂(g)+ NO₂(g)⇌ SO₃(g)+ NO(g)

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

According to Le Chatelier's principle, if a reactant is removed from a reaction at equilibrium, the system will shift in the direction of the reactants to replace the amount of reactant that was removed. In this case, removing NO₂ will cause the reaction to shift in the direction of reactants, which is SO₂ and NO₂. Therefore, the correct choice is D.
