Question

Given the equation A(g)  B(g) + 2C(g). At a particular temperature, K = 1.4 *10 5 .
-Addition of chemical B to an equilibrium mixture of the above

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Based on Le Chatelier's principle, if a reactant is added to an equilibrium mixture, the equilibrium will shift in the direction that consumes that reactant. In this case, adding chemical B will cause the reaction to shift to the left, consuming more B, which will cause an increase in [A]. Therefore, choice A is the best answer.
