Question

The equilibrium SO2Cl2 ( g) leftharpoons SO2 ( g) + Cl2 ( g) is attained at 25°C in a closed container and an inert gas, helium is introduced. Which of the following statements are correct ? (A) Concentration of SO2,Cl2 and SO2CI2 change (B) More chlorine is formed (C) Concentration of SO2 is reduced (D) None of the above

SO2Cl2 ( g) leftharpoons SO2 ( g) + Cl2 ( g) . Adding inert gas at constant volume will not affect partial pressure of reactant or products, hence will not affect equilibrium amount o f either reactant or products.

Q. The equilibrium $S O_{2} C l_{2} (g) ⇌ S O_{2} (g) + C l_{2} (g)$ is attained at $2 5^{\circ} C$ in a closed container and an inert gas, helium is introduced. Which of the following statements are correct ?

Concentration of $S O_{2}, C l_{2}$ and $S O_{2} C I_{2}$ change

More chlorine is formed

Concentration of $S O_{2}$ is reduced

None of the above

$S O_{2} C l_{2} (g) ⇌ S O_{2} (g) + C l_{2} (g)$ .
Adding inert gas at constant volume will not affect partial pressure of reactant or products, hence will not affect equilibrium amount o f either reactant or products.
