NEET Chemistry Chemical Equilibrium Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): Removal of a product from a reaction mixture shifts the equilibrium towards the products. | Reason (R): Removing a product decreases the reaction quotient (Q_c) compared to the equilibrium constant (K_c).
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
A is true but R is false.
A is false but R is true.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The removal of a product decreases Q_c, making it less than K_c, which shifts the equilibrium towards the products to restore balance, as per Le Chatelier's principle.
