A state of dynamic equilibrium, Ag_2CO_3(s) 2Ag^+(aq) + CO_3^2-(aq). exists in solution. What shift if any. occurs in the equilibrium if more Ag_2CO_3(s) is added to the system?

Answer 1

For the equilibrium

$Ag_{2}CO_{3}_{\left ( s \right )}\rightarrow 2Ag^{+}+CO_{3}^{}{-2}$

a) Equilibrium moves in forward direction on addition of solid silver carbonate

b) on adddition of Aqueous silvernitrate equilibrium shifts to backward direction

c) on addition of water no.of moles of Ag+ remains the same as mass dissolved is not altered

d) on addition of water concentration decreases as concentration is a ratio of no of moles with that of volume

e)on addition of HCl the Ag+ ions are converted to AgCl hence equilibrium shifts to forward direction
