For a reaction C(s)+CO_(2)(g)hArr2CO(g) |
|
Answer» The equlibrium shifts in backward direction if more of CO is added When more of `CO_(2)` is added `Q_(p)` DECREASES, hence in order to reach equlibrium, SYSTEM moves in forward direction, hence choice (a) is correct. When more of CO is added, `Q_(p)` increases and therefore to reach equlibrium, system moves in backward DIRECTIN, so choice (b) is correct. Since active mass of colids is 1, hence changing the concentrations of carbon does not change Q. Hence adding carbon does not shift the equlibrium, (c) is incorrect. Whereas (d) is correct. |
