In the equation:
[Co(H2O)6]+2(aq) + 4Cl–(aq) + heat ⇌ [CoCl4]-2(aq) + 6H2O(l)
does increasing the volume within a system shift the equilibrium to the left of right?
why does this occur?
1 answer
Adding H2O will shift the equilibrium to the left so that more of the hydrated complex on the left will form.
