Phosphorous pentachloride when heated in a sealed tube at `700 K` it undergoes decomposition as `PCl_(5)(g) hArr PCl_(3)(g)+Cl_(2)(g), K_(p)=38` atm Vapour density of the mixture is `74.25`. If pressure is increased then the equilibrium willA. Be unaffectedB. Shift in backward directionC. Shift in forward directionD. Cannot be predicted

Answer» Correct Answer - B
On increasing pressure, the equilibrium shift in such side which have lesser number of molecules i.e., backward direction.
