Question
Densities of diamond and graphite are 3.5 and 2.4 g/ml, respectively. The increase in pressure (at constant temperature) at the equilibrium in C (Diamond) $\rightleftharpoons$C (Graphite) will
Options
A.favour the forward reaction.
B.favour the backward reaction.
C.have no effect.
D.increases the equilibrium constant.
Solution
VDiamond < VGraphite
On increasing pressure, equilibrium will shift toward diamond.
