For the reaction `CO(g)+H_(2)O(g) hArr CO_(2)(g)+H_(2)(g)` at a given temperature, the equilibrium amount of `CO_(2)(g)` can be increased byA. Adding a suitable catalystB. Adding an inert gasC. Decreasing the volume of the containerD. Increasing the amount of `CO(g)` |
Answer» Correct Answer - D Since the given equilibrium involves `Deltan_(g)=0`, there will be no effect of adding an inert gas and decreasing the volume of the container. A catalyst can help in achieving the equilibrium rapidly without affecting the equilibrium amount of the species involved in the reaction. Only increasing the amount of a reactant can shift the equilibrium amount of a product. |
