What would cause the equilibrium to shift left in this reaction? CO + 3H2 ⇌ CH4 + H2O

A) adding heat to the product mixture

B) a faster rate of forward reaction

C) increased collisions between CO and H2

D) the escape of water from the mixture

E) placing the mixture in a cold water bath

Explanation:

Option A. Explanation: To decrease pressure by increasing volume, the equilibrium of the reaction shift to the left as the reactant side has greater number of moles than the product side

"hydrogen bonding is the attraction of h atoms in the water molecule (slight + charge) to o atoms in a neighboring water molecule (slight - charge); it is a weak interatomic force. but it is still strong enough to the water molecules "stick" together."
