← ScienceWhich equilibrium-shifted outcome occurs when additional reactant is introduced?
A)Increased product formation to new equilibrium✓
B)Decreased temperature within the reaction vessel
C)Change in the activation energy needed
D)Rate constant quickly decreases to stable state
💡 Explanation
Le Chatelier's Principle dictates that systems at equilibrium oppose changes; the equilibrium will shift due to “reaction quotient,” increasing product formation. Therefore, equilibrium shifts toward products rather than a change in the rate constant, because the system redistributes the reactants.
