Question

Consider the following reactions,
a) H.(g) +1,(g) = 2 HI(g)
b) CaCO,(s) = Cao (s) + CO2(g)
c) S(s) + 3F, (g) = SF, (g)
In each of the above reaction find out whether you have to increase (or)decrease the volume to increase the yield of the product.​

Answer 1

Answer:

In the first two reactions, we'll have to increase the volume and in the last one we'll have to decrease the volume.

Explanation:

shortcut: if we increase volume, the reaction will go in the direction where the volume is already greater and if we decrease volume then the reaction will go in that direction where the volume is already less.

Hope it helps.
