The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Use Le Châtelier's principle to predict how the equilibrium for the weak base methylamine responds to the indicated changes.

$CH_3NH_2(aq.)+H_2O(l)\rightleftharpoons CH_3NH_3^+(aq.)+OH^-(aq.);\Delta H^o_{rxn}=103kJ/mol$

1) adding KOH

2) Increasing the temperature

For 1: The reaction will shift in left direction that is towards the reactants.

For 2: The reaction will shift in right direction that is towards the product.

Explanation:

For the given chemical equation:

$CH_3NH_2(aq.)+H_2O(l)\rightleftharpoons CH_3NH_3^+(aq.)+OH^-(aq);\Delta H^o_{rxn}=103kJ/mol$

We are given:

$\Delta H^o_{rxn}=103kJ/mol$

As, enthalpy of the reaction is positive. So, it is an endothermic reaction.

For an endothermic reaction, heat is getting absorbed during a chemical reaction and is written on the reactant side.

$A+\text{heat}\rightleftharpoons B$

Any change in the equilibrium is studied on the basis of Le-Chatelier's principle. This principle states that if there is any change in the variables of the reaction, the equilibrium will shift in the direction to minimize the effect.

For 1: Adding KOH

As, hydroxide ions are present on the product side of the reaction. So, when more hydroxide ion is added, the concentration of hydroxide ion increases on the product side.

According to Le-Chatelier's principle, to minimize the effect, the equilibrium will shift in the direction where hydroxide ion concentration decreases, which is to the reactant side.

Hence, the reaction will shift in left direction that is towards the reactants.

For 2: Increasing the temperature

As, heat is getting absorbed during a chemical reaction. This means that temperature is getting increased on the reactant side. If the temperature in the equilibrium is increased, the equilibrium will shift in the direction where, temperature is getting decreased.

Hence, the reaction will shift in right direction that is towards the product.

b. acid is the correct answer @jayxboof all social media

acid : acids are those which accepts an electron-pairs.

base : bases are those which donates ab electron-pairs.

alkali : it is a base that dissolves in water. it is basically a base and the ph greater than 7.

hydroxide ion : it is a poly-atomic ion which is negatively charged.

One way in which the useful metal copper is produced is by dissolving the mineral azurite, which contains copper(ii) carbonate, in concentrated sulfuric acid. the sulfuric acid reacts with the copper(ii) carbonate to produce a blue solution of copper(ii) sulfate. scrap iron is then added to this solution, and pure copper metal precipitates out because of the following chemical reaction: (s) (aq) (s) (aq) suppose an industrial quality-control chemist analyzes a sample from a copper processing plant in the following way. he adds powdered iron to a copper(ii) sulfate sample from the plant until no more copper will precipitate. he then washes, dries, and weighs the precipitate, and finds that it has a mass of .
