Consider the chemical equation in equilibrium. cap A times g plus 2 cap b g if and only if cap c times g plus cap d times g plus heat What will happen to the equilibrium of this reaction if the temperature is increased?

A
It will shift to the left because heat is released.
B
It will shift to the right because heat is released.
C
It will shift to the right because heat is absorbed.
D
It will shift to the left because heat is absorbed.

During a lesson in physical science about changes of matter, students made ice cream. Among the materials that are required to make ice cream is salt. Which answer choice best explains the role of salt in this activity?

A
Salt in ice cream preparation is used as a preservative to enable the ice cream to have a longer shelf life.
B
Adding salt prevents the milk in the ice cream from going bad and giving the ice cream a bad taste.
C
Adding salt to the ice raises the freezing temperature. This helps the milk mixture to delay in freezing, giving the ice cream enough time to form and have a great taste.
D
Adding salt to ice lowers the freezing temperature. This helps the milk mixture to freeze sooner because the mixture will reach the freezing temperature sooner.

A
The activation energy needs to be overcome in the reaction.
B
The sulfuric acid has to be consumed before the reaction takes place.
C
The activation energy must be removed from the intermediates.
D
The sucrose molecules must rearrange to become the catalyst.
