Interpretation:
The effect of change in temperature of given reaction results in change in
Concept introduction:
Le Chatelier's principle states that if a system in equilibrium gets disturbed due to modification of concentration, temperature, volume, and pressure, then it reset to counteract the effect of disturbance.
Effect of change in temperature:
Endothermic reaction:
In this reaction increase in temperature which is absorbed in reactant side, the reaction occurs in a way to relieve the stress in reactant side. The reaction occurs along the direction of product side and increases equilibrium constant.
Exothermic reaction:
In this reaction increase in temperature which is released in product side, the reaction occurs in a way to relieve the stress in product side. The reaction occurs along the direction of reactant side and decreases equilibrium constant.

- Describe a nonchemical system that is in equilibrium, and explain how the principles of equilibrium apply to the system.arrow_forward12.101 An engineer working on a design to extract petroleum from a deep thermal reservoir wishes to capture toxic hydrogen sulfide gases present by reaction with aqueous iron(II) nitrate to form solid iron(II) sulfide. (a) Write the chemical equation for this process, assuming that it reaches equilibrium. (b) What is the equilibrium constant expression for this system? (c) How can the process be manipulated so that it does not reach equilibrium, allowing the continuous removal of hydrogen sulfide?arrow_forward. Many sugars undergo a process called mutarotation, in which the sugar molecules interconvert between two isomeric forms, finally reaching an equilibrium between them. This is true for the simple sugar glucose, C6H12O6, which exists in solution in isomeric forms called alpha-glucose and beta-glucose. If a solution of glucose at a certain temperature is analyzed, and it is found that the concentration of alpha-glucose is twice the concentration of beta-glucose, what is the value of K for the inter-conversion reaction?arrow_forward

A process is spontaneous in the direction that moves it away from equilibrium toward equilibriumarrow_forward12.85 In the figure, orange fish are placed in one aquarium and green fish in an adjoining aquarium. The two tanks are separated by a removable partition that is initially closed. Describe what happens in the first few minutes after the partition is opened. WTiat would you expect to see several hours later? How is this system analogous to dynamic chemical equilibrium?arrow_forward
