QUESTION:

Problem 53P

Consider this equilibrium system:

CO(g) + Fe3O4(s) ⇌ CO2(g) + 3FeO(s)

 How does the equilibrium position shift as a result of each of the following disturbances? (a) CO is added, (b) CO2 is removed by adding solid NaOH. (c) Additional Fe3O4(s) is added to the system. (d) Dry ice is added at constant temperature.

ANSWER:

Solution 53P:

Here, we are going to find the influence of the following factor that affect the equilibrium position shift as a result disturbances.

Step 1:(a) CO is added

Given that the equilibrium system:

CO(g) + Fe3O4(s) ⇌ CO2(g) + 3FeO(s)

When CO is added to the equilibrium system, the concentration of the reactant goes on increase. Therefore, the net direction of the reaction is moving towards the formation of products.

Therefore, the the equilibrium position shifts towards the product.
