Explanation / Answer

Ans. #3. Molar mass of C2H6 is 30.0 g/mol, and that of O2 is 32.0 g/ mol. Following stoichiometry of balanced reaction, 7 moles of O2 is consumed per 2 mol of ethane.

That is, if ethane is being consumed at a rate of 1 mol (=30.0 g) per second, then O2 would be at a rate of 3 moles (112.0 g) per second.

So, the rate of O2 consumption is greater than that of ethane.

# So, correct option is- C. O2

#4. Following Le Chatelier’s principle, addition of a reactant to the equilibrium mixture shifts the equilibrium towards formation of products.

So, correct option is – A.

#5. Correct option is- C. When Q < Keq, the reaction will continue to make more products.

A Q <Keq means that the concentration of product is less than that at its equilibrium values. So, following Le Chatelier’s principle, the reaction proceeds in forward direction to form more product and restore the equilibrium.

#6. Correct option A. Have the assigned value of one.

The concentration of pure solids and liquid is taken unity (1).
