1.	Consider the following reactions, CaCO_(3)(s)hArrCaO(s)+CO_(2)(g) In each of the above reaction find out whether you have to increase (or) decrease the volume to increase the yield of the product.
Answer» SOLUTION :`CaCO_(3)(s)hArrCaO(s)+CO_(2)(g)` In this equilibrium no. of moles of product is greater than no. moles of reactant. So increase of PRESSURE will shift the equilibrium towards the backward reaction. To increase the YIELD of product, pressure should be decrease and hence volume increases.
