A law setting the minimum wage below the equilibrium point might have an unintended effect that could lead to unemployment. It also prevents poor families being able to better their conditions and thus increases poverty.

Why price ceiling and price floor is binding?

A price ceiling is binding when it is below the equilibrium price. It is the legal maximum price, so the market wants to reach equilibrium (which is above that) but can't legally. If it were above the equilibrium price it would not be binding because the market would reach equilibrium and the ceiling would have no effect. A price floor is binding when it is above the equilibrium price. You can use similar reasoning to that above. It is the legal minimum price. the market wants to reach equilibrium below that but can't legally.


What unintended effect did the fugitive slave act have on northerners?

The Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 intensified opposition to slavery in the North by requiring northerners to assist in the capture and return of escaped slaves. This led to heightened tensions between pro- and anti-slavery factions, as many people in the North resented being forced to participate in the enforcement of slavery. The act also sparked a wave of resistance and defiance, with some northerners aiding fugitive slaves in their escape.

How does adding more reactants effect equilibrium?

Le Chatelier's principle says that, when a equilibrium is disturbed by adding or removing one or more of the contents, the system will attain a new equilibrium to minimize its effect. So when reactants are added to the system, some of they will react and give products in order to gain the new equilibrium.
