Consider the following reaction at equilibrium. What effect will decreasing the temperature have on the system? DH=+890kJCO2(g)+2H2O(l)<--> CH4(g)+2O2(g)a) the equilibrium constant will increaseb) the reaction will shift to the left in the direction of the reactantsc) the reaction will shift to the right in the direction of the productsd) no effect will be observed

Option B. The reaction will shift to the left in the direction of the reactants.

Explanation:

The equation for the reaction is given below:

CO₂ + 2H₂O <=> CH₄ + O₂

Enthalpy change (ΔH) = +890 KJ

The reaction illustrated by the equation is endothermic reaction since the enthalpy change (ΔH) is positive.

Increasing the temperature of an endothermic reaction will shift the equilibrium position to the right and decrease the temperature will shift the equilibrium position to the left.

Therefore, decreasing the temperature of the system illustrated by the equation above, will shift the reaction to the left in the direction of the reactants.

Thus, option B gives the right answer to the question.

the answer is true.

it's all four options.
