← ScienceWhich outcome occurs in a reversible chemical reactor when continuously removing product species?
A)Equilibrium shifts toward product formation✓
B)Reverse reaction rate increases greatly
C)Total system pressure remains constant
D)Reactant concentrations remain at baseline
💡 Explanation
Removing product decreases its concentration, thus upsetting the equilibrium; Le Chatelier's principle dictates that the equilibrium shifts to favor product formation, because this counteracts the removal of product; therefore, more product forms, rather than just an increase in reverse reaction rate.
