Consider an endothermic equilibrium system involving gases
and solids in a closed, expandable container kept at constant
pressure.
A(s)−⇀↽−B(g)+C(g)
Which changes will cause the equilibrium to shift?
Select one or more:
Addition of solid A
Addition of an inert gas
Increase in temperature
Removal of gaseous B
c
Addition of an inert gas
Increase in temperature
Removal of gaseous B
c
, A change in temperature can shift an equilibrium system.
To determine the impact of temperature, use the _______ to
determine whether the reaction is endothermic or exothermic. If
the reaction is endothermic, treat heat as a _______ in
equillibrium. If the reaction is exothermic, treat heat as a _____
in the equilibrium.

Consider the two reactions of iron ions, one with thiocyanate (
SCN−) ions and one with chloride ons.
Fe3++SCN−−⇀↽−FeSCN2
Fe3++4Cl−⟶FeCl4−
If you create an equilibrium mixture from
Fe3+
and
SCN−
ions, adding
Cl−
ions will remove the
Fe3+
from the equilibrium mixture and will cause the reaction to
