Question

A reversible exothermic synthesis (combination) reaction produces one mole of gaseous product from two moles of gaseous
reactant. Which set of condtions will shift the reaction farthest toward the products?
A)
low temperature, low pressure
B)
low temperature, high pressure
9
high temperature, low pressure
D)

A 2.0g piece of Mg reacts with HNO3. Which conditions would produce the GREATEST reaction rate?

Answer 1

Factors that will increase product formation are;

1. low temperature and high pressure
2. increasing the surface area and concentration

What factors affect chemical equilibrium?

The position of chemical equilibrium is affected by the following factors:

• temperature
• concentration
• pressure for gases

When equilibrium is altered by an external factor, the reaction shifts to annul the effect of that change.

For the reversible exothermic synthesis, low temperature and high pressure will shift the reaction farthest toward the products.

For the reaction of the 2.0g piece of Mg with HNO3. increasing the surface area of magnesium metal as well as increasing the concentration of HNO3 would produce the GREATEST reaction rate.
