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.

Sorry, did not notice 4 point.
asthe volume decreases, the pressure inthesystem will increase andthesystem will seekto reduce it. As a consequence of this, the equilibrium is shifted tothe side with less gaseous substances.
