Question

Bromine dichloride, BrCl2, decomposes to form bromine and chlorine at equilibrium according to the following equation:
2BrCl2(g) + heat ⇌ Br2(g) + 2Cl2(g)
For the following change, how would the reaction shift (toward the products, reactants, or no change)?

The temperature is increased?

Answer 1

Heat is a reactant in this equilibrium and increasing temperature is another way to say adding heat. So, how does the reaction shift when you add a reactant?
