In the reaction; N2 + O2 ⇌ 2NO, increasing the pressure will result in_________________?
Correct answer: C. No change in equilibrium condition
- A. Shifting the equilibrium towards right
- B. Shifting the equilibrium towards left
- C. No change in equilibrium condition
- D. None of these
Explanation
The reactant side has two moles of gas and the product side also has two moles, so changing pressure does not favour either direction for an ideal-gas equilibrium. The equilibrium composition therefore remains unchanged.
