Answer:
- More [FeSCN]²⁺ will be consumed shifting the reaction to the left.
Explanation:
Th equilibrium equation for iron(III) thiocyanate ion is:
Fe³⁺ + SCN⁻ ⇄ [FeSCN]²⁺
When NaOH is introduced into the equilibrium system, part of the OH⁻ ions react with the Fe³⁺ ions in solution, as per the chemical equation:
Fe³⁺ + 3OH⁻ ⇄ Fe(OH)₃ ↓ (solid precipitate)
Threfore, the concentration of Fe³⁺ ions in solution decreases.
