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.
