Question

Which of the following is likely to occur if more reactants are added to a reaction that is at chemical equilibrium?

There will be no effect; the reaction will stay at equilibrium

The reaction will shift to the right (toward the products)

The reaction will shift to the left (toward the reactants)

Answer 1

Answer:

The reaction will shift to the right (toward the products)

Explanation;

• Le Chatelier's principle states that changing a factor such as concentration, temperature, or pressure of a reaction at equilibrium will cause the reaction to shift in the direction that counteracts the effect of that change.
• Therefore, when more reactants are added to a reaction at equilibrium shift  the reaction shifts to the right to make more products.
