Removing product from an equilibrium mixture causes what response?
A.The forward reaction speeds up to replace it
B.The reverse reaction speeds up
C.K increases
D.Nothing happens
Explanation
Core Concept
Lowering product concentration drops Q below K, so the forward reaction runs until Q climbs back to K. Concentrations of remaining species shift but K holds.
Correct Answer
AThe forward reaction speeds up to replace it
