Consider an acidic chromate-dichromate system at equilibrium in which the color is an orange-yellow. The reaction is represented by the equation:Cr2O72-(aq) + H2O(l)↔ CrO42+(aq) + H+(aq) orange yellow Which of the following best describes what happens if a strong base is added to the system at equilibrium? Explain your answer.

The equilibrium will move in forward direction.

Explanation:

Any change in the equilibrium is studied on the basis of Le-Chatelier's principle.

This principle states that if there is any change in the variables of the reaction, the equilibrium will shift in the direction to minimize the effect.

On addition of base at the equilibrium, the hydroxide ions of the base will neutralize the hydrogen ions and lowering in concentration of hydrogen ion will be observed.

So, on lowering of concentration of hydrogen ions the equilibrium will move in direction in accordance to Le Chatelier’s Principle .The equilibrium will move in forward direction.

answer:

the reaction is type of combination reaction.

explanation:

on the product side, there are 2 molecules of bonded to fe   which means one atom of fe are combined two molecules of . so, balanced chemical equation becomes :

this reaction follows the reaction type of combination reaction. a combination reaction is defined as chemical reaction in which reactants combines together to form a single product.
