Answer 2

Left

Question 3

If the concentration of reactants is lesser than the concentration of products, where will the equilibrium position be?

Answer 3

Right

Question 4

What happens to the equilibrium position if you increase the pressure?

Answer 4

It will move in the direction with the lower amount of moles

Question 5

What happens to the equilibrium position if you increase the temperature?

Answer 5

It will move in the direction of the endothermic change

Question 6

What happens to the equilibrium position if you increase the concentration?

Answer 6

It will move in the direction away from the substance that is increasing in concentration
