Decrease in number of moles in the reaction makes it favourable at high pressure.

Q. In which of the following reactions the increase in pressure will favour the increase in products?

$N_{2} (g) + O_{2} (g) ⇌ 2 N O_{(g)}$

$PC l_{3 (g)} + C l_{2} (g) ⇌ PC l_{5} (g)$

$PC l_{5} (g) ⇌ PC l_{3 (g)} + C l_{2 (g)}$

$2 C O_{2} (g) ⇌ 2 C O_{(g)} + O_{2} (g)$

Decrease in number of moles in the reaction makes it favourable at high pressure.

Q. In which of the following reactions the increase in pressure will favour the increase in products?

N2​(g)+O2​(g)⇌2NO(g)​

PCl3(g)​+Cl2​(g)⇌PCl5​(g)

PCl5​(g)⇌PCl3(g)​+Cl2(g)​

2CO2​(g)⇌2CO(g)​+O2​(g)

Decrease in number of moles in the reaction makes it favourable at high pressure.

$N_{2} (g) + O_{2} (g) ⇌ 2 N O_{(g)}$

$PC l_{3 (g)} + C l_{2} (g) ⇌ PC l_{5} (g)$

$PC l_{5} (g) ⇌ PC l_{3 (g)} + C l_{2 (g)}$

$2 C O_{2} (g) ⇌ 2 C O_{(g)} + O_{2} (g)$
