Question
Two systems PCl5(g) $\rightleftharpoons$PCl3(g) + Cl2(g) and COCl2(g) $\rightleftharpoons$CO(g) + Cl2(g) are simultaneously in equilibrium in a vessel at constant volume. If some CO is introduced into the vessel, then at the new equilibrium, the moles of
Options
A.PCl5 increases.
B.PCl5 remains unchanged.
C.PCl5 decreases.
D.Cl2 increases.
Solution
Addition of CO will shift second reaction backward. Decrease in Cl2 will shift the first reaction forward.
