Answer to Question #92992 in Physical Chemistry for Ataniya

Question

By using the Le Chatelier’s principle, discuss the following factors which may affect the
position of equilibrium. In your explanations, mention any possible change in the value of
K, and whether the amounts of reactants or products increases or decreases depending
whether the equilibrium shits either left or right.
i. An increase of the pressure of a gaseous reaction system.
ii. A decrease in the amount of product.
iii. An increase in the amount of reactants.
iv. The volume of the reaction vessel is decreased.

Answer 1

Sorry, did not notice 4 point.
as the volume decreases, the pressure in the system will increase and the system will seek to reduce it. As a consequence of this, the equilibrium is shifted to the side with less gaseous substances.
