Co²+
(aq) + 4Cl¯¯(aq) ⇒ CoCl² (aq)
We can conclude that:
1. This reaction is
O exothermic.
O endothermic.
O neutral.
O More information is needed to answer this question.
2. When the temperature is decreased the equilibrium constant, K:
O increases.
O decreases.
O remains the same.
O More information is needed to answer this question.
3. When the temperature is decreased the equilibrium concentration of Co²+:
O increases.
O decreases.
O remains the same.
O More information is needed to answer this question.
