Here is the answer to One LeChatelier's Principle Problem Homework using the format highlighted in the homework.
Arsenic can be extracted from its ore (how it found in nature) by first reacting the ore with oxygen (called roasting) to form solid As4O6 which is then reduced using carbon in the following reaction:
1 As4O6 (s) + 6 C(s) <==> 1 As(s) + 6 C1O1 (g)
If I have the above chemical reaction in an equilibrium system and add a stress of adding in more carbon monoxide, what would LeChatelier's Principle says would happen (use the blank answer form below).
Here is link to notes on LeChaterlier's Principle, Equilibrium Notes 3 (Notes on LeChatelier's Principle)
Start of Answer
Stress: Add more C1O1
How rxn tries to remove stress:
Consume (substance is a product in chemical reaction) C1O1
Circle: Make more product or more reactant (fill in for pressure changes)__________________
Circle: Favoring: Forward rxn or Backward rxn: (fill in for temperature changes) _____________
Circle: Shift Equilibrium to: Left(more reactant) or Right (more product)
