(a)
Interpretation:
The direction of reaction while increasingvolumeof the given reaction has to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
Le Chatelier's principle states that if a system in equilibrium gets disturbed due to modification of concentration, temperature, volume, and pressure, then it reset to counteract the effect of disturbance.
Effect of change in pressure:
- According to Le Chatelier's principle, increase in pressure (decrease in volume) leads to flow of reaction in direction where number of moles is less.
- According to Le Chatelier's principle, decrease in pressure (increase in volume) leads to flow of reaction in direction where number of moles is more.
