Question

Using Le Chatelier's principle, indicate how each change will affect the following reactions. Justify your answer. 2 NaOH (aq) + CO2 (g) = Na2CO3 (aq) + H2O (l) ?H(degree) = -180 kj/mola)- Removing Na2CO3 from the reaction vessel.b)- Adding more CO2 (g) thereby increasing the pressure in the reaction vessel. Consider both the addition of reagent and the change in pressure in your answer.c)- Adding an inert gas to the reaction mixture to increase the pressure in the reaction vessel.d)- Lowering the temperature of the reaction vessel.
