Equilibrium - Result Question 32
####34. According to Le-chatelier’s principle, adding heat to a solid $\rightarrow$ liquid equilibrium will cause the
(a) temperature to increase
(b) temperature to decrease
(c) amount of liquid to decrease
(d) amount of solid to decrease.
Show Answer
Solution:
- (d) Solid $\rightarrow$ Liquid
It is an endothermic process. So when temperature is raised, more liquid is formed. Hence adding heat will shift the equilbrium in the forward direction.
