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 ( Δ H ) for the reaction is 137.0 kJ mol − 1 . Which one of the following actions would shift the equilibrium to the right ?, Decreasing the volume of the closed reaction vessel, Decreasing the temperature at which the reaction is performed, Adding an inert gas to the closed reaction vessel, Increasing the volume of the closed reaction vessel

MARKS App · Accepted Answer

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