Question

The volume of a closed reaction vessel in which the equilibrium -2SO2(g) + O2(g) ⇌ 2SO3(g) sets is halved, Now -

A The rates of forward and backward reactions will remain the same.
B The equilibrium will not shift.
C The equilibrium will shift to the right.
D The rate of forward reaction will become more than that of reverse reaction and the equilibrium will shift to the right.

Answer 1

Answer:

(C)

Explanation: Applying Le chattlier's principle

On decreasing the volume equilibrium shifts to that direction where number of moles are less.

Since, number of moles in the right side is lesser,equilibrium shifts to forward direction.

Answer 2

Answer:

please mark thanks me and I will follow you

c. asexual the iquilibrium will shift to the right
