What are four signs a chemical reaction has taken place?

Explain what happens at the saturation point when adding salt to water at room temperature.

The small bags of silica gel you often see in a new shoe box are placed there to control humidity. despite its name, silica gel is a solid. it is a chemically inert, highly porous, amorphous form of sio2. because water vapor readily adsorbs onto the surface of silica gel, it acts as a desiccant. despite not knowing mechanistic details of the adsorption of water onto silica gel, from the information provided you should be able to make an educated guess about the thermodynamic characteristics of the process. predict the signs for δg, δh, and δs for the adsorption of water.

Consider the following reaction at equilibrium: c(s)+h2o(g)⇌co(g)+h2(g) predict whether the reaction will shift left, shift right, or remain unchanged upon each of the following disturbances. a) c is added to the reaction mixture. b) h2ois condensed and removed from the reaction mixture c) co is added to the reaction mixture d) h2 is removed from the reaction mixture.
