The equilibrium that exists in aqueous solution, CH 3 COOH ⇌ CH 3 COO − + H + if dil HCl is added at constant temperature, then
Options
- AThe equilibrium constant will increase
- BThe equilibrium constant will decrease
- CConcentration of C H 3 C O O - will decrease
- DConcentration of C H 3 C O O - will increase
Correct answer
C. Concentration of C H 3 C O O - will decrease
Step-by-step solution
Due to common ion effect of H + , the ionisation of C H 3 COOH is suppress hence the concentration of C H 3 C O O - will decrease.
