Question

The reaction C ₂ H ₆( ~g ) C ₂ H ₄( ~g )+ H ₂( ~g ) is at equilibrium in a closed vessel at 1000 ~K . The enthalpy change ( H ) for the reaction is 137.0 ~kJ ~mol ⁻¹ . Which one of the following actions would shift the equilibrium to the right ?

Quantrex Academy · Accepted Answer

Correct answer: D. Increasing the volume of the closed reaction vessel

According to Lechatelier principal on increasing volume of closed vessel equilibrium will shift towards right.
