(a)[2]
Predict and explain the effect of increasing the pressure on the position of equilibrium. The temperature is kept constant.
(b)[2]
Predict and explain the effect of decreasing the temperature on the position of equilibrium. The pressure is kept constant.
(c)[2]
The rate of reaction decreases when the temperature is lowered. Explain why.
(d(i))[2]
The reaction is catalysed by copper. Describe and explain the effect of a catalyst on this reaction.
(d(ii))[2]
Copper is a transition element. Many transition elements are catalysts. Give two further properties of copper that show it is a transition element.
