In the reversible reaction: 2no2 (g) ⇌ n2o4 (g) the formation of dinitrogen tetroxide releases heat and the formation of nitrogen dioxide absorbs heat. if the reaction is at equilibrium and the temperature increases, what will the effect be? a. nitrogen dioxide absorbs heat and changes from gas to liquid. b. the equilibrium will shift so that there is more nitrogen dioxide. c. the equilibrium will shift so that there is more dinitrogen tetroxide. d. dinitrogen tetroxide absorbs heat and changes from gas to liquid.

B. The equilibrium will shift so that there is more nitrogen dioxide.

Explanation:

Hello,

By considering that the mentioned reaction is exothermic, it means that the heat is like a product, if heat is added (increase the temperature) the equilibrium will shift leftwards, contributing to the inverse reaction; it is the formation of more nitrogen dioxide by recalling the Le Chatelier's principle.

Best regards.

Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

According to Le Chatelier's principle, any disturbance causes in an equilibrium reaction will shift the equilibrium in a direction that will oppose the change.

For example,

When we increase the temperature then the reaction will shift in a direction where there will be decrease in temperature.

This, means that the reaction will shift in the backward direction.

Thus, we can conclude that if the reaction is at equilibrium and the temperature increases, the equilibrium will shift so that there is more nitrogen dioxide.

the answer would be a

um i think it might be a car?
