1.

The equilibrium showing dissociation of phosgene gas is given below:COCl2(g) ⇌ CO(g) + Cl2(g) When a mixture of these three gases at equilibrium is compressed at constant temperature, what happens to 1. The amount of CO in mixture? 2. The partial pressure of COCl2 ? 3. The equilibrium constant for the reaction?

Answer»

1. Amount of CO decreases, because the system favours the reaction in which number of moles decreases with increase of pressure i.e., backward reaction. 

2. Increases. 

3. Equilibrium constant remains the same since temperature is constant.
