Select the correct answer. In this reaction, what effect does a change in the concentration of substances have on the reverse reaction rate?

CaCO3(s) ⇌ CaO(g) + CO2(g)

A.
The rate of the reverse reaction increases with an increase in the concentration of CaCO3(s).
B.
The rate of the reverse reaction increases with an increase in the concentration of CaO(g) and CO2(g).
C.
The rate of the reverse reaction decreases with a decrease in the concentration of CaCO3(s).
D.
The rate of the reverse reaction decreases with an increase in the concentration of CaO(g) and CO2(g).
E.
The rate of the reverse reaction increases with a decrease in the concentration of CaO(g) and CO2(g).

A. The rate of the reverse reaction increases with an increase in the concentration of CaCO3(s)

Explanation:

If the concentration of a reactant has increased, The substance will shift in the direction of the reaction that uses the reactants, So that the Reactants substance Increases.

vanderwaal's forces of attraction are the electrostatic intermolecular forces that exist in a molecule due to the temporary or permanent dipoles that are developed in a molecule. in , the major intermolecular forces are dipole-dipole interactions as the molecule is polar (bent structure). so the vanderwaal's forces of interaction in between molecules are the permanent dipole-dipole interactions that develop due to the dipole that exists in between the polar h - s bond. the positively charged hydrogen atom is attracted towards the negative end of the dipole that is sulfur of the adjacent molecule. therefore, these forces of attraction are relatively stronger than that of london dispersion forces that exist in non polar molecules.
