Reverse reaction in a chemical equilibrium is favoured by the________________?
Correct answer: C. Increase in the concentration of one of the products
- A. Removal of one of the products regularly
- B. Increase in the concentration of one of the reactants
- C. Increase in the concentration of one of the products
- D. None of these
Explanation
Adding a product shifts equilibrium toward the reactants to oppose the concentration increase, so the reverse reaction is favoured. Removing a product has the opposite effect and favours the forward reaction.
