Reversible Reaction

• Which one of these statements are true?

  a.) In a reaction at equilibrium, there is the same amount of products as reactants

  b.) If the forward reaction in a reversible reaction is exothermic, then the reverse reaction is endothermic

  c.) If the equilibrium of a system lies to the right, then the concentration of products is less than the concentration of reactants

  B
• What will decreasing the temperature have on a reversible reaction in which the forward reaction is exothermic

  The temperature would them increase
• How can you predict the effect of changing the pressure of a gaseous reaction?

  If pressure increases, then equilibrium will reduce it
• According to Le Chatelier’s principle, what will the effect of decreasing the concentration of the products for the forward reaction have on a reversible reaction

  The system will no longer be at equilibrium
