Question

The equilibrium can be attained at a faster rate if one of the products is allowed to escape from the reaction mixture.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

The equilibrium can be attained at same rate if one of the products is allowed to escape from the reaction mixture. When one of the products is removed from the reaction mixture, the reaction will proceed in the forward direction so that more of products is obtained, Thus, the yield of product will increase. But the rate of the reaction (speed with which equilibrium is attained) is unaffected.
