Question

according to lechateliers principle, in an equilibrium system, the system will shift in such a direction as to counteract the stress until a new equilibrium is reached. the stress applied can be the addition of more reactant, the addition of product, the removal of some reactant, the removal of some product or a change in temperature. each of these will cause the equilibriumbto shift to either form more reactant or more product until equilibrium is reestablished.
consider the following equation:
1R + 1P = 2W + 1B

each indicates a stress placed on the equilibrium system described by the above reaction. for each circle whether the equilibrium will shift to produce more reactant or more product to relieve that stress and explain your choice.

some B is removed: _______________
some R is added: ___________________
some W is added: ___________________

Explanation / Answer

1R + 1P = 2W + 1B

some B is removed: ___shift to produce more more product

some R is added: ____shift to produce more more product

some W is added: ___will shift to produce more reactant

explanation:

1) on addition of any one of the reactant the equilibrium will shift to prouduct side

2) on removal of any one of the product the the equilibrium will shift to prouduct side

3) on addition of any one of the product the equilibrium will shift to reactant side

4 ) on removal of any one of the reactant the the equilibrium will shift to reactant side
