Use the equation to answer the question.

H2O(l) + heat = H2O(g)

A sample of water is at equilibrium at 100°C. Which statement best describes what will happen if liquid water is added to the system?

A) All of the liquid water molecules that are added will remain
liquid water.
B) More water vapor molecules will change to liquid water until a
new equilibrium is reached.
C) All of the liquid water molecules that are added will become
water vapor.

Answer:

Equilibrium and Stability Quick Check

1. The rate of the forward reaction equals the rate of the reverse reaction.

2. More LIQUID WATER molecules will change to WATER VAPOR until a new equilibrium is reached.

3. By adding WATER (H2O).

4. The additional BROMINE IONS cause the equilibrium to shift to the REACTANTS.

5. Removing WATER (H2O).

Step-by-step explanation:
