Question

Think of an everyday activity where removal of one of the products helps the reaction to faster in forward direction?​

Answer 1

Cooking with open, exposed flame to prevent build up of CO₂ which will extinguish the fire

Step-by-step explanation:

In the cooking process whereby food is heated by the combustion of cooking gas as follows;

C₄H₁₀ (g) + (13/2)O₂ → 4CO₂(g) + 5H₂O(g), ΔH = -2658 kJ·mol⁻¹

The product of the combustion must be allowed to escape freely to allow for more reactant molecules of oxygen and butane to effectively combine.

Whereby, the CO₂ is allowed to remain and accumulate at the reaction site, the CO₂ displaces the oxygen and reduces the butane such that as the CO₂ builds up without removal, the CO₂ and butane will left in the mixture while the fire is extinguished.
