B) The equilibrium will change in the direction of the products. C) The equilibrium constant will decrease. D) The equilibrium will change in the direction of the reactants. E) No change in equilibrium is observed.

Step 1
In this case, if we add more SO2 (a product), the system will try to counteract this change by shifting the equilibrium to the left, towards the reactants, to use up the extra SO2. Show more…

For each of the questions, four choices have been provided. Select the correct alternative. Equilibrium position of which of the following reactions is not affected by change in pressure? (a) $\mathrm{I}_{2(\mathrm{~s})}+5 \mathrm{~F}_{2(\mathrm{~g})} \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{IF}_{5(\mathrm{~g})}$ (b) $\mathrm{FeO}_{(\mathrm{s})}+\mathrm{CO}_{(\mathrm{g})} \rightarrow \mathrm{Fe}_{(\mathrm{s})}+\mathrm{CO}_{(\mathrm{g})}$ (c) $2 \mathrm{Cu}\left(\mathrm{NO}_{3}\right)_{2(\mathrm{~s})} \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{CuO}_{(\mathrm{s})}+4 \mathrm{NO}_{2(\mathrm{~g})}+\mathrm{O}_{2(\mathrm{~g})}$ (d) $\mathrm{N}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{4(\mathrm{~g})} \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{NO}_{2(\mathrm{~g})}$

Consider the following reactions at equilibrium and determine which of the indicated changes will cause the reaction to proceed to the right. (1) $\mathrm{CO}(g)+3 \mathrm{H}_{2}(g) \rightleftharpoons \mathrm{CH}_{4}(g)+\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(g)\left(\right.$ add $\left.\mathrm{CH}_{4}\right)$ (2) $\mathrm{N}_{2}(g)+3 \mathrm{H}_{2}(g) \rightleftharpoons 2 \mathrm{NH}_{3}(g)$ (remove $\mathrm{NH}_{3}$ ) (3) $\mathrm{H}_{2}(g)+\mathrm{F}_{2}(g) \rightleftharpoons 2 \mathrm{HF}(g)$ (add $\mathrm{F}_{2}$ ) (4) $\mathrm{BaO}(s)+\mathrm{SO}_{3}(g) \rightleftharpoons \mathrm{BaSO}_{4}(s)$ (add BaO) (a) $2.3$ (b) $1.4$ (c) $2.4$ (d) $2,3,4$
