Equilibrium Question 779

Question: The reaction, $ SO_2+Cl_2\xrightarrow{{}}SO_2Cl_2 $ is exothermic and reversible. A mixture of $ SO{ _2}(g) $ , $ Cl_2(g) $ and $ SO_2Cl_2(l) $ is at equilibrium in a closed container. Now a certain quantity of extra $ SO_2 $ is introduced into the container, the volume remaining the same. Which of the following is/ are true-

Options:

A) The pressure inside the container will not change.

B) The temperature will not change.

C) The temperature will increase.

D) The temperature will decrease.

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

By addition of $ SO_2 $ equilibrium will shift to RHS which is exothermic. Hence temperature will increase.
