Set C: Determining effect of stress Objective: To test your ability to determine changes to

equilibrium reaction when a stress is introduced into the reaction

Below, equilibrium reaction equation and different stresses to each reaction are given.
Determine changes in concentration, rate and shift to the reaction based on the equation and each stress
that are given. In the spaces, write “increases” or “decreases” For shift, write “left” or “right”.


Equation 1 : 2Cl2 + 2H2O < ======== > 4HCl + O2
