Once a reaction reaches chemical equilibrium, the concentrations of the reactants and products are ________?
Equilibrium shifts can be displayed with colors. Use the following reaction to determine what color will result when components of the reaction are changed. (Lesson 3- Shifting Colors)
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.
How is a system at equilibrium impacted by an increase in pressure?How is a system at equilibrium impacted by an increase in reactants?How is a system at equilibrium impacted by an increase in products?List some negative effects of deforestation.Why does the government impose environmental regulations for industries?
At equilibrium, an increase in pressure will cause the system to shift towards the side with fewer moles of gas in order to reduce the pressure. This will shift the equilibrium position of the reaction.
An increase in reactants at equilibrium will shift the equilibrium position towards the products in order to restore equilibrium.
An increase in products at equilibrium will shift the equilibrium position towards the reactants in order to restore equilibrium.
Some negative effects of deforestation include loss of biodiversity, habitat destruction for animals, increased greenhouse gas emissions, soil erosion, and disruption of local water cycles.
The government imposes environmental regulations for industries in order to protect the environment, public health, and natural resources. By enforcing regulations, the government can ensure that industries are operating in a sustainable and environmentally responsible manner.
