Methanol has the formula of CH3OH and can be produced by the reaction of carbon monoxide with hydrogen gas. CO + 2 H2 === CH3OH + heat Using the above chemical reaction, determine how each of the following actions would affect the equilibrium of the system. a. heating the mixture b. adding an excess of carbon monoxide c. removing the methanol as it is formed d. adding a substance that reacts with carbon monoxide

See explanation below

Explanation:

Let's answer this by parts.

a) As the reaction is naturally exothermic (Exerts heat), increasing temperature means that the reaction will move forward the direction where its absorbing heat

, so the equilibrium will be favored to the reactant side.

b) In this case, the addition of CO, which is a reactant will favor the reaction to the product side. This is because putting more quantity in the reactants will cause that the equilibrium constant K, increase it's innitial value, and this favors the product side.

c) In this case, it happens something similar to case b. This will cause that the reaction will have to work to cover the loss of methanol, therefore, equilibrium will move to the product side too.

d) In this case, we are adding another substance that reacts with CO, so it means that the other reactant is being removed, therefore, the reaction will work to cover this loss but also to cover the adding of the new substance, causing that the K decrease it's value, so equilibrium will be favored to the reactants side.

Hope this helps

answer: e.   sour taste

explanation: acids are those substances which dissociates in water to give ions. as they dissociate to give ions, they act as electrolytes and thus are electrically conductive. acids are sour in taste. example: hcl

bases are those substances which dissociates in water to give ions or accepts ions. as they dissociate to give ions, they act as electrolytes and thus are electrically conductive. bases are bitter in taste. bases are slippery in nature.

the earth would become to overheated and everything alive on it will eventually die from overheating. plants will eventually die as well, water will evaporate, and it will be nothing but a hot planet without anything living on it.
