A solution at equilibrium is yellow-orange.

A solution at equilibrium is yellow-orange.  A shift towards the products  would cause the color of the solution to lighten, a shift towards the reactants would cause the color of the solution to darken.

If the concentration of FeSCN is increased, this causes a shift towards (reactant/product) and the color of the solution would become (lighter/darker) closer to the (red/colorless) color.

If the concentration of SCN is increased, this causes a shift towards (reactant/product) and the color of the solution would become (lighter/darker) closer to the (red/colorless) color.

1. Challenges scientists face when creating vaccines for viruses include identifying the appropriate antigens, ensuring safety and efficacy through rigorous testing, addressing the issue of vaccine hesitancy, and dealing with mutations of the virus.

2. A negative effect that can result from ion exchange water purification systems is the generation of brine waste that can be harmful to the environment if not properly disposed of.

3. Reverse osmosis can have a significant financial impact on a city with water purification challenges as it requires high energy consumption and maintenance costs.

4. Three possible options for using excess pomace include using it as animal feed, converting it into biogas through anaerobic digestion, and utilizing it in composting to enrich soil.

5. Extracts from pomace can be used in products such as dietary supplements, cosmetics, food additives, and biofuels.

6. The strength of Kevlar and spider silk is due to their high tensile strength, durability, and flexibility.

7. Although both spider silk and Kevlar have similar properties, spider silk is biodegradable and Kevlar is not.

8. Ways to optimize metal extraction while minimizing environmental impact include using sustainable mining practices, recycling metals, reducing water and energy consumption, and implementing pollution control measures.

9. For an area prone to possible acid rain, a great combination of alloy metals would include stainless steel, aluminum, and titanium as they are corrosion-resistant metals.
