From: JEE Main 2023 (Online) 1st February Evening Shift
Question
The effect of addition of helium gas to the following reaction in equilibrium state, is :
Choose an option
Show full solutionCorrect option: A
Correct answer
Athe equilibrium will shift in the forward direction and more of and gases will be produced.
Step-by-step explanation
Case 1 : At constant pressure, the addition of inert gas (helium) will shift the reaction where number of moles of gaseous substances are more hence, the reaction will proceed in forward direction. Then answer will be .
Case 2 : At constant volume, addition of He will not affect the equilibrium so reaction will not shift in any direction then answer will be .
