Question 24
H

A pink solution containing cobalt(II) ions is warmed and turns blue. The equilibrium in the solution is shown.

pink complex + 4Cl−4\text{Cl}^-4Cl− ⇌ \rightleftharpoons\,⇌ blue complex + 6H2O6\text{H}_2\text{O}6H2​O

What does the colour change show about the forward reaction?

[1]
A

It is exothermic, because heating supplies energy to the mixture

B

It is exothermic, because the products are favoured by heating

C

It is endothermic, because heating shifts the equilibrium right

D

It is endothermic, because heating shifts the equilibrium left
