Question

What Le Chatelier’s factors cause an increase in the concentration of Hb(CO)4(aq) in the Hb(CO)4(aq) + 4O2(g)Hb(O2)4(aq) + 4CO(g)

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hb(CO)4(aq) + 4O2(g) ⇄ Hb(O2)4(aq) + 4CO(g)

1 ) If we increase the concentration of CO(g) , the reaction above will proceed in reverse direction to decrease its concentration, according to Le Chatelier principle. Hence more of Hb(CO)4(aq) will be formed.

2 ) If we decrease the concentration of O₂ , then also , reaction will proceed in reverse direction . Hence concentration of Hb(CO)4(aq) will be increased .
