Homework Statement


CoCl4 2-+6H2O --> Co(H2O)62++4Cl-+energy
If I add silver nitrate, which direction does it shift?
I think it is no effect, because adding solid does not affect the equilibrium?... Am i right?

Btw, what happen if i add aqueous to X gas --> Z gas + Y gas, vise verse...
or gas to x(aq)--->Z aq + Y aq
Thanks

Homework Equations


The Attempt at a Solution

Silver nitrate is not being added as a solid. Assume that it is being added as a dissociated species in solution. What effect would the Ag+ ion have on the equilibrium?

I can't tell what you are asking about your gases but I assume that you are adding water vapor to a mixture of interconverting gases at equilibrium, yes? If the partial pressure of water vapor doesn't appear in the equilibrium expression, will it change the equilibrium?
