Question

Based on equation 1, if carbon dioxide is removed, where would the equilibrium shift?

Eqn 1:

CO2(g) + H2(g) <--> CO(g) + H2O(g) + energy

a. left

b. no change

c. right

Answer 1

If reactants are removed, more reactants would form, making the reactant move to the left

$\therefore$ The equilibrium would shift to the left.
