Equilibrium Question 778
Question: On the basis of Le-Chatelier’s principle, predict which of the following conditions would be unfavourable for the formation of 803- Given that $ 2SO_2+O\rightarrow 2SO_3;\Delta H=-42kcal $
Options:
A) Low pressure and low temperature
B) High pressure and low temperature
C) High temperature and low pressure
D) High concentration of $ SO_2 $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: C
Solution:
Since reaction is exothermic hence low temperature will favour forward reaction also volume is decreased by applying high pressure.
